I was browsing through the Writer Magazine links, and I found Blue Mountain Arts, Inc., a greeting card company. Blue Mountain Arts held a poetry contest; the 3rd place winner’s entry is pretty good (aside from the bulky title and use of hyphens).
The poem is short (just a few lines), it paints a picture of one place in time and the author uses descriptive words with unlikely nouns – a love of mine (when it works well).
I googled Tessa Zeng and found this Deviant Art page but it may or may not be the same author. Whereever she is in on the Web and in life, I hope she keeps writing. She’s a talent to watch.
