grey sky, I’m grey-cold
Wind chimes soothe ice water song
Night ember flickers.
My work:
Patheos,
The Job, The Space Between Us, Green,
The Unlikely Bounty, Straight Love, The Heart Factory, The Half Paper Moon, I am Bexley and Atonement by JMS Books

Love the painting. The tone, imagery, and feel of the haiku are fantastic. The rich language conveys so much in so few words. Really well done.
Stunning, blue ribbon brilliance! Go gurl! 🫶🏾💕
Even the flickering fire feels cold. Well done!
Nice job on this one 🩶🩶🩶

Last year (2025), I challenged myself to write at least one story for each of the 48 Vocal communities. I have achieved that goal, but a lot of new community stories were cramped into the last two weeks of the year.
