Poem of the Week

Where Angels Fly


Forlorn
my home under the oak tree
lined with ivy and wisteria

the walls breathe alive with chirps
not crickets nor birds nor elves

tranquil brook surrounding the patch of land
goldfish merrily swim beneath the hill
of uneven steep stairs

approaching the top where angels fly.

A very big thank you to the poetry contributors of the first issue of Pixies of Eglantine!

Submission guidelines appear on the site, but right now, I hope you all enjoy reading Issue 1.

Issue 13 of Exercise Bowler is now online

Issue 13 of Exercise Bowler marks three years of the publication! First released in June 2010, I never realized just how successful a one-woman operation this could become. A huge, huge, HUGE thank you to everyone who has contributed their poetry over the past three years - if it wasn't for the many names you see in Exercise Bowler, why, the publication never would have existed!

Meanwhile, enjoy reading Issue 13!
