Roughly A6 pocket-book size, and stapled. It contains around 46 unnumbered pages of poetry with two haiku to a page. It is very nicely presented and edited. The poetry in this publication is always of high quality. This issue marks its fifth birthday. There are no reviews, articles, or news. There is just the editorial followed by pages of poetry. There are about 57 names in the contributors' list. Many are familiar to me and it is nice to see one or two from countries other than the US and Canada. These are some I particularly enjoyed: heatwave — he paints his fence a paler blue Stephen Toft since you moved, just a road I don't go down John Stevenson orchard heat the snap of an apple stem Lori Laliberte-Carey prayers for a friend . . . mahonia blossoms scent the night air Peggy Willis Lyles waving good-bye . . . your warmth, too, leaving my hand Dorothy McLaughlinAcorn deserve to be proud of their five years and this journal provides a service to poetry. | ||
