The fourth poem accepted by Whispers and Echoes—Tattered Remnants—is published today.
Tattered remnants of desiccated leaves …
See Whispers and Echoes for the rest of the poem
Tattered Remnants was written in 2003 and posted on crimsonprose in my first weeks of blogging (14th December 2012).
Whispers and Echoes is an online journal that publishes flash-fiction of up to 100 words, and poems up to 10 lines (excluding blanks); see here to submit. It is chiefly edited by Sammi Cox, well-known and loved for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompts where she punishes us with impossible targets, and thus pushes us through the gates of inspiration.
Earlier issues of Whispers and Echoes can be seen on the Dreaming Spirit website.

I thank you, Dale. It’s been sitting as hard copy in my physical files for a long long while. I happened upon it while looking for something else. Considering I’ve moved home twice since I wrote it, I’d call that serendipity.
