STEVEN M. CROSS
On Thinking about Cremation

The years push me toward that place Where the light is faint -- A pinprick shining against onyx monuments. Memories rush around me; My life flashes against silent shadows And shatters on stone -- into pieces. Raging floods carry me -- in pieces -- Down a black river. Snagged on limbs, Swept up in minnow buckets, Splashed by toddler hands Grasping at tadpoles; I dissolve. But some little Bit of me floats on, Swept into the oceans of eternity.

JOYANNE O’DONNELL
Winter 

I always think of the snow as white angels dancing our wishes on snow flakes in the solo wind snowmen structured in the buff with every snow fluff and tip of his hat glow of his magical flipping cane.
