The Greensilk Journal
A literary ezine

MAY  2012

The Spring Issue is coming soon!

 

So here it is!

I want to welcome the growing  list of  GSJ writers, all the  fantastic, new  authors  that have blessed us with submissions! Plus, a very special  shout-out  to  the  very  talented  locals  from Winchester Downtown Poets.

I promise the Spring issue will be a treat! Poetry that explodes with beautiful seasonal images that intoxicate, and  touch the very heart of spirituality. Stories with such soulful imagination and tenderness, featuring a  dog, a young schoolgirl, and a hotel comedy act,  to name a few.

And another lush and rich bittersweet jewel from Tom Sheehan.

Pour some lemonade, please!  Could you add a slice of lime on mine? Sit back and relax and relish the lastest Greensilk Journal!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Sprout 

    by  Changming Yuan

 

From under

A bulky boulder

Sitting still, meditating

Like a Buddha

A tiny bamboo sprout

Has just broken the earth

Ready to shoot up

Against the entire sky
