Submissions via e-mail:
I wake up early and watch light
slither beneath tight blinds
licking shadows with its soft tongue.
Night stirs in wrinkled sheets
their musky scent redolent
of earth probed with loving hands
seeds planted.
DOWNPOUR
I open my umbrella and shake it awake
from dreams of rain.
We walk into a world smudged
by a watery hand
the city a blur of colors
burning.
Umbrella dances to the syncopated beat
of rain
drops bursting blossoms
seeding sidewalks
weeds that wet my ankles
and meadow streets.
Jane Butler, Alamed, California
