Archive Selection--By Anne Curran--New Zealand--Originally Published--December 14, 2016


shifting her plants
on the whim
of a spring breeze ...
it is a woman's privilege
to change her mind
______________

a gunshot
from over the rise
in our suburb...
he never wanted
to go to war
______________

an unseasonal
Autumn wind
stirring up talk ...
things are not
as we remember them
______________

  1. Dear Anne,

    Your poem has a lot to ponder about, a very intriguing piece.

    Best wishes,
