WINTER 2025

The forecasters, whether AI or human, were right.  It is winter, and not just in the north.  This week Brooklyn's temperatures ranged from about 8 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit.  Long nights and frozen cold invoke different muses.  But, at Expansive Poetry Online, we continue to offer poems from north and south, east and west, again and hope you will enjoy them. 

Poems this month have arrived from C.B. Anderson, Bruce Bennett, Susan Jarvis Bryant, Sally Cook, Michael Curtis, Steven Duplij, Claudia Gary, Arthur Mortensen, Brian Palmer, Carolyn Raphael, David Rothman, Joseph S. Salemi, Jan Schreiber, and Frederick Turner.
