Poetry There are a number of poets among the Ovi team, so we have gathered the together here.


	Sunny Fantasia by Saloni Kaul The all-powerful sun rules like dictator That doesn't permit anything else to grow or appear
	Turnip in the Still by Michael Lee Johnson In shadow wooden structures stalled highway up staircases to the top, the redwood scares me looking down.
	Carpentering by Jan Sand The first god, perhaps, Thrust out of the black Star filled sky As a fist of fire.

	Only the Landscape Knows by Emmanuel Sigauke Let me whisper to the bush, guardian of my home let me proclaim the message of arrival in this time of war
	Silence & All Syllabic! by Saloni Kaul The solitary and silent by themselves all stay And feed like melancholy long on thought Until they think it wise to join the fray
	Steel Bridge by Nikos Laios The steel bridge Spanned the bay And the fog floated Slowly over the waves,
	I've discovered the meaning of life by Abigail George The air is sweet here, and I am filled with a sudden longing for you. It just didn't work out and you're a ghost now from novel memory. I feel the stillness
	The fall by Bohdan Yuri The skin touches, the flesh burns; jerks from fearing singes, fragile is its thought. inclination presses on, confirmed, planted by sure reason.
	Compare & Contrast by Saloni Kaul Hard and brittle, rigid and unyielding as cast iron,
	Below by Jan Sand The surface of the sea Chipped into hollows by the wind Waves whitecaps back at me.
