Honorable Mention
Red Moon Rising
Vienna (Carole Barley)

Full at dusk.
Clouds fray as if veils
falling from your corn husk face.
Big yellow moon
wallows roundly in a thin sky.

The air is cool, listless breeze
fingers windchimes tangled
amongst new leaves
of travellers rest.
Too early for perfume.

Rolled in the hands of midnight
you become fuller in the dark silence.
A windowledged cat stares,
hums a mantra for a moon
blushed by an unseen sun.

This is an night to take toes
bare to grass, caress ferns
and fronds lit by a pagan glow.
There are no stars to speak of
save those kept in the heart.

Red moon rising, planetery shifts
and lover's words in a drift
of space.
Portent in the shivered air,
the shapes and shadows
of things to come.
