Two of my original poems have been featured in this publication.

Anoint Anoint Anoint, by Linda Saccoccio, Page 37

Winter A Time Machine, by Linda Saccoccio, Page 44

Oil of Honeysuckles suckle suckle suckle

Survival

Anoint Anoint Anoint

With Sapphire infused water on a full moon

Anoint Anoint Anoint

With Lady Slipper in your vision your body

Anoint Anoint Anoint

Every Hour Every THIS V A S T

Lady Slipper pink humility

Woodland flower full of space

Fleshy sack of air lowers

Not to be picked says the law

Lady Slipper vital organ

Irresistible, was picked

Anoint Anoint Anoint

On a full moon consecrate

Lady Slipper left wild

Linda Saccoccio

Santa Barbara, California

ever past ever now

chilled air in evening

chips away at my shoulder

crackle of fire sounds of sleet

we cradle our babies

with a gentle rock

light a match
