Sample Poems:
how can I fault
the curious Pandora
for opening the jar—
I thought my face cream too
promised eternal youth
Margaret Chula, Portland, Oregon, USA
an ant
on this pilgrim path . . .
oh teach me, Santiago
the size of today
the strength of now
Carole Harrison, Jamberoo, Australia
from a ball of flesh
Queen Gandhari brings forth
her Kaurava clan . . .
science celebrates Louise Brown,
the first test-tube baby
Pravat Kumar Padhy, Odisha, India
the humming of the clock
fading now to silence
by your bedside
half a world away
a banshee prepares to sing
John Tehan, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA
Dido
cut an oxhide into strips . . .
the glorious city
of Carthage bloomed
in the Mediterranean Sea
Ali Znaidi, Tunisia
