Many thanks to editor D. Ellis Phelps for publishing my first poem of the new year, Fennel Fronds & Other Currency.
In 2024 I only submitted poetry three times and this is the only acceptance I received. I hope to get back to writing poetry this year. I miss it. I hope I haven’t lost the touch. I also miss posting here and the WordPress poetry community I used to enjoy. I plan to visit you all more regularly this year.
Wishing everyone a peaceful and happy 2025.


Especially love “his hands securing them / to stakes also secured my place / in life”💜 Beautiful poem, congrats Charlotte!

That’s such an appealing idea. I could love a dress of spider webs. Happy New Year Charlotte! (K)
