Laughter, play
On through night
On fresh sight,
Moon-round light.

Life finds milder melodies.
Only laughter sings.
Virtue wipes away decay.
Even frowns grow wings.

Announcement I won second place in Story Seed Vault’s “Bees” flash fiction contest. I am grateful to the judges for selecting my 140-character micro fiction story.
Announcement I am a new board member of the Illinois State Poetry Society. Blogging provides inspiration and contact with other poets. Local organizations provide something similar on a more personal level.
What’s neither dry nor frozen hard
Makes circles red with bliss
And green takes form to guide and guard
Metamorphosis.
