Minuet of the Ice Fairy by Ken Allan Dronsfield

Minuet of the Ice Fairy

Ravens sing in a shrill harmony
soaring above a scarlet fiery pyre.
Sprite-lings flying dodging flakes;
seeking boughs of red cedar cover
Ice faeries waltz a loving minuet
on a clear ice crystal snowflake.
goblins dressed in Easter attire;
soft kisses with lemonade pouts,
awaiting many passionate desires
as love of a cherished mystics soul.
Whilst opaque diamond stars weep
during that icy passionate dance,
crimson blood shall rise and steep
flashing tease of an ocular ellipse.
Peeking full moon in pastel clouds
edge of a gnome's rapaciousness
inhale a pinkish twilight sun-dog,
dance a Minuet with the Ice Fairy.
(CTU Anthology Poetic Shadows: Ink and the Sword)

Gently in Nature by Michael Griffith

Gently in Nature I wish today's sunlight could last forever. Our sky a blue that can't be defined by a crayon's name. Neither can the amber of your hair - They're both found gently in nature. We witness the park's afternoon together, but details will shift in time's shaky embrace. You will correct me when I misremember the breed of the runaway dog we saw and the name of that deli where we bought those regrettable sandwiches when I tell our friends about this perfect picnic day, but for now all I want to focus on is that spark in your smile as you look up into my squinting-in-the-sun eyes, a spark of love found gently in your nature. BIO:   Michael Griffith began writing poetry while recovering from a life-changing injury. Poetry helped his mind and spirit stay healthy as his body healed. His poetry has recently appeared in Ripen the Page, Dual Coast Poetry, Poetry Quarterly, Degenerate Literature, the Starving P...

Grounded Angel By Desiree Cady

Grounded Angel By Desiree Cady The devil appeared Such an evil, dark one Told me his plan By the end I knew I was done. I had met a force Sure to break me down In a pool of my own blood I was sure to drown. He said, " You can't be this innocent, You can't be this sweet. I will deny you of your wings And you can join me below in my hellish heat." He proceeded to attack, Stripped me of my wings.. But I sensed God was present So I didn't feel a thing. He thought he had won As he took my weapons of flight But I fooled him..for even a broken winged angel Can still stand up and fight.
