blackout –
everyone a scary
story teller

Ana Drobot

knock at the door –
blown leaves crowding
the verandah 
 

Lavana Kray

rice paper
the cherry tree blooms
in watercolours 

Steliana Cristina Voicu

                        TANKA

after the storm
two golden leaves
on a puddle …
meeting
from time to time 

 Steliana Cristina Voicu


moanful wind
turns the leaves
into falling ...
such a fitting eulogy
for the homeless artist
