Perfect timing! I received my copy of "Wild Voices: an anthology of short poetry & art by woman" a week before International Woman's Day. I am taking my time savoring each page and celebrating all these female experiences expressed in poetry and art. Kudos to all the contributors and most especially, editor Caroline Skanne!
Here are three of my poems included in this anthology.
cajun moon . . .
when all it takes
is just one look
is just one look
where petals unfurl
into subtle shades
like clouds in the sky
I am a birdsong waiting
to be heard
into subtle shades
like clouds in the sky
I am a birdsong waiting
to be heard
roaring waterfall—
within me the will
to carry on
within me the will
to carry on
