Once
There was nothing more.
It built into nothing more
Than astonishing.

Poetry
Embraced by Shadow – Haiku and Photos
Embraced by shadow
All our light becomes a
Possibility
For Frank’s Tuesday Photo Challenge – Shadows
Time
Words, unspoken,
Stain these hours
With a faintly marbled hue.

Strange Days
The strangest of days
Emit a light
Not soon forgotten.
Harvest – tlt week 24
Hanging in the air
The sweet, raw smells of harvest
Fading in the sun

Farm and country – and all the smells, textures, sounds that go along with them – are my happy place. Born and raised in the city, the constrained bustle of it has always felt confining; it’s never been ‘home’.
Thank you, Sonya, for this 3 Line Tales weekly photo prompt!

Fractured Cowardice – haiku/daily prompt
Fractured cowardice
Frayed edges of inertia
Dangling in the wind.

Unsettled echoes – daily prompt/layers
Layers of colour
Patterns folded in the past –
Unsettled echoes.

Sugar Crumbs – 3 Lines Tales
Melting sugar crumbs –
Wistful blanket of denial
To keep the sweetness flowing –
Let it caramelize and burn!

Lost Documents
Lost Documents Literary Magazine is a Nova Scotia based new publication that is accepting submissions for both fiction and poetry at lostdocuments.ns@gmail.com. They accept submissions from all over the world, there is no fee for submission, and their turnaround time was just over two months – not bad!
They have just accepted a piece of flash fiction of mine, and I could not be more delighted!
As a very new press, they are in the process of evolving and growing, and are, at present, non paying. If you see fit and are able to support their growth, they accept donations here.
Rainforest
Steamed bright
And brilliant in their isolation
Colours run true in the thick of it.
