3 Poems by Stefanie Bennett

THE PRESENCE  

Beyond description,
Too wound weary
To hold
           ... The Beloved
Lays
The wild violet
Beside
The Patron
                Saint
                Of soul.



WORD FOREST  

And I saw you return in
        The dream I’d
           Not dreamt



INTERDEPENDENCY       

Moonlight in the pines sets
        The pampas grass
                Purring


Bionote
