Joy
by Dixie MacUisdin

Oh, what indescribable joy it brings,
When flowers burst forth in the spring.
Their laughing heads and smiling eyes
Are Nature's joie de vie personified.

My Far  Away Nearby
by Dixie MacUisdin
​

​My body seems anchored here
But you are far away
In a place I do not know
If I will ever see you again
 
If I close my eyes
And let my mind be free
I can pull you through the time
Here, back close to me
 
If I dare, I can imagine
Things that might have been
And in my thoughts, you become
My far away nearby

 Lit by the Fire Sun
​by Dixie MacUisdin

 At dawn I walked the border road
 And looked across the velvet greens
 Towards the stand of wild firs
 And one lone flaming tree.

JOINING
by AY Dorsey
 
Remember the night you woke and told me your dream?
You went to the beach: my bones were there, gathered at the waters edge,
​the skin covering them incidental.
You said my hair ran down my face like rivers sweeping around stone eyes.
You held me close to warm me.
 
I dreamed that night too:
You were in the forest.
Moss fingers brushed my ankle.
I turned and saw you alone.
Gathered you in.
Sang to you of the sea.

​ONE THING
by Dixie MacUisdin
​

when I think about the spring
my eye is drawn to one small thing
one small thing can put out roots
and rise to stand upon the earth
bold and strong with arms outstretched
which lead to green and pink
pink that blossoms, bursting forth
to fall upon the earth
and when the summer colours cool
reveals a small new thing
