Take my breath and understand, I've come this far to hold your hand. You have hovered, formless, over my waiting consciousness, although I did not know it then, you are my destiny, when I nurtured my dream, the farther you seemed, the closer you were to me. I was cautious but in time my feelings … Continue reading The Whole Heart: Cassandra Kulay

Void Inside my Mind: Bradley Mckay
In the cloudiness of my mind a storm arises. Thoughts, dreams exist only in imagination of my insanity. It creeps into my very soul now takes over I no longer have the capacity for the goodness that once consumed me. Knowledge, wisdom that once had flowed through my mind now numb, hidden away in the … Continue reading Void Inside my Mind: Bradley Mckay
Dear Floozie Shoes: Susan Maria Rowley
I have tasted another classic miracle seen the purple twisted tail go by so utterly fantastic it feels to be in the presence of the master-less sandals sashaying about on the boarded-up prairie field wantonly waiting for the trolls to peep out and beg for manna and gleaming crystals to hoard listlessly longing for long-legged … Continue reading Dear Floozie Shoes: Susan Maria Rowley
To Be Able To Cry: Stephen Sigurdson
So fake, mistaken, misunderstand, it is me, what a mess, life is not what it should. In what must be a weak character, broken with no manuals, mechanics with no answers, not sure what to say, not sure what is needed, or where to get that part. I write with these negative words as an … Continue reading To Be Able To Cry: Stephen Sigurdson
Happiness Amongst All: Peter Herget
Nothing is as exciting as it once was before. But everything changes and we change with the times. Nothing may be the same; it doesn’t mean that we have to stop enjoying what is around us. Life is never as expected; you just take it day by day, moment by moment. No matter how fast … Continue reading Happiness Amongst All: Peter Herget
A Season to Remember: Robert St. Germain
Let’s all raise a toast to a good Christmas, And a happy new year. Let’s hope for a bounty of cheer. We have left old feuds at the doorstep. And be far from our regrets. Bask in the warmth of those we hold near. And taking the music that floats in our ears. If you … Continue reading A Season to Remember: Robert St. Germain
Christmas Night: Jordan Derksen
It was the night before Christmas. I was 12 years old. My master plan was to catch Santa in the act. I stuffed my bed with pillows to make it look like I was asleep. I snuck down to the living room and hid behind the couch waiting near the milk and cookies. Hours went … Continue reading Christmas Night: Jordan Derksen
Look Inside Your Heart: Joyce Lancaster
Through the eyes of another Simple as a child’s smile White as snow Soft as a kitten As white as the lights On the Christmas star All lit up A new beginning is going To come while we wait For the first snowfall A blissful hope is born Let’s not lose that Joyous wonder of … Continue reading Look Inside Your Heart: Joyce Lancaster
Crying Clouds: Jan McCartney
The rain still keeps on falling. It falls in a steady rush. It’s been three days, already. And the snow has turned to slush. Then a car races by in front of you And a waterfall subsides Leaving in its wake a drowned out rat That runs on home and hides. Smell of humid clothing … Continue reading Crying Clouds: Jan McCartney
The Spirit of Childhood Happiness: James Adamson
To the Glory of God To Gwyneth with Love There was a day in my early teens that suddenly the magic of Christmas vanished. Otherwise I was an implicitly happy child that time of year. It is since then that a lesser expectation has given life to my thanks for what I get. And … Continue reading The Spirit of Childhood Happiness: James Adamson
