Northern wind on southern steeps,
cords of copper rock in frieze,
arrowed “A” of singing geese,
swerve of bees and sea of trees,
summer green and salve of ease,
kiss of heat and coax of breeze.

It’s a “Gathering” Gathering! (August 27th in Chantilly, VA)
Hey, gang, I just wanted to help spread the word about Poets Anonymous’ August 27th launch event for the second annual Gathering poetry anthology. The event will take place at 7:30 at Courtyard Dulles Airport Chantilly, 3935 Centerview Drive, Chantilly VA 20151. (The door opens at 7.)
Admission is $5. You can purchase the book at the event, if you wish; preorder information is right here. The poets whose work will appear in the anthology have been invited to read their work (though I am sadly unable to attend due to a prior commitment.)
I hope you are all having a terrific summer. 🙂

My “prayer upon an empty hilltop” will be published in the second annual “Gathering” poetry anthology.
I’m so happy to learn that my “prayer upon an empty hilltop” poem will be published in the second annual Gathering poetry anthology — due to be released at the end of August by Poets Anonymous! I will post details and ordering information as it becomes available.
I had my work selected last year for the Gathering’s inaugural issue, so I am especially honored to see one of my poems published in this second annual collection.
Thanks once again to Bards President James P. Wagner, as well as Lesley Tyson and Megan McDonald of Poets Anonymous!
