Toasting the miracle

Lean accounts followed the splendor,
and memories reminded me of the pleasures.
The visions of delight carried no superfluous meat.

I keep speaking to you in poetry. I'm sorry.
I never thought I would be this way.

Noelle McManus
 

Slow Waking

I'm so small a giant hand holds me
lightly against the dawn hum
of the recomposing self.

Jane M. Wiseman

I see a dot
of red marble flash: a good warning
