First Place – Ion Cuzuioc
frosty winter –
the spiders patch up
the cracks in the house
Second Place – Mirela Brăilean
porch with crickets –
hanging in a nail
the old lute
Third Place – Luminița Ignea
cut forests -
the sunset bleeds
the bareboned hill
Mention – Ion Cuzuioc
night breeze –
the trees’ branches
play ping pong with the moon
Mention – Ana Urma
streets with glazed frost –
so many unpredicted
hugs
Mention – Cornel C. Costea
anniversary -
only the north wind blows
in the candle
