I was lended
by Barry Howarth

I was lended to this world
amongst the smoke and things
that break.
nevertheless, I love the bloom of
what might bless me tomorrow.

though I try and stay out of the way
of these things,
they happen and come to me like a
smile attracted to a clown- or the

Honey
by Barry Howarth

The color of
honey
resides here next to
the reflection of the fire.

Leaves have fallen, the
bones revealing naked trees,

Our hearts move
inside warming

True beauty lies within
by Saleh Ben Saleh

Many a girl dreams of enchanting beauty,
But beauty is not a dream to fulfill.

If your heart and soul are but pure,
All envious eyes will fall ill.

Stand not bewildered my lady,
Your true beauty lies within.

Look around and accept your creation,

Sleeping Dogs
by Tony Grannell

While whiling away the evening
after whittling down the day.
Obliging satisfactions
that might happen by my way.
I tended not to urgency,
nor bid favour to complaints.
Accommodating pleasantness
without trespass or restraints.

The porch, where sought my easy chair

Alive, barely inching across the concrete

Violet Sundance
by Kirsten Sanders

The sky reverberates with anticipation.

The gradual rhythm of light
Breathes order and motion
Under the receding cloak

A solar sliver slips:
Belly to the horizon,

Contentment Is Imminent
by mv venkataraman

Contentment is a holy invisible ointment.
A sentiment stopping disappointment,
An excellent way for mind-management,
A fine element for joy's development,
Brings improvement via peace-settlement,
Appointment of contentment is relevant,
If bombardment of desires gives impediment,
A brilliant attitude indeed under the Firmament !
