June is here, and our stories reflect family loss and longing, unexpected meetings, and the solace of nature. We have a few pieces inspired by the recent poetry workshop led by Ben Jackson, a few that were read as part of Chris DeLorenzo’s birthday reading, and a few discovered in the treasure chest of writing notebooks.

We have poems by Kaye Cleave and Sally Elesby. Stories are by Ken Linton, Carol Harada, Merijane Block, Lee Granas, and Narelle Hill.

Enjoy and share with others!
