Honorable Mention
Swans of the Ox-Bow
M. Kathryn Black

The ox-bow is still and deep;
in the evening swans glide.
They are ships on pink water,
glowing white follies under a single star.
Gracefully they open their pinions
as they float home to roost
in soft dark thickets.
Tucking heads under wings
they dream of slow fish
seeking their black beaks,
of sun-lit ripples moving.
Under the warm blanket of night
the swans are great eggs
mirroring the waxing moon.
