We enjoy quiet places, places where no manmade thing can be heard, places where the sound of the world is all there is. Not unlike the subjects of today's trio of poems... "The Quiet Places" by Lysette Cohen crowcrosskeys.com/2025/07/26/the…

Venture into the woods with me. 🌲 Thrilled to have this eerie poem out in @CrowKeys today!
If you go down to the woods today, you might find us, racing through the trees like wild things to the beat of deer hooves in the loam. Or, you might not. Perhaps, just read this poem instead: "Maru Mori" by @taylorhamannlos crowcrosskeys.com/2025/07/16/mar…

My newest short story is up at @CrowKeys - perseverance, loss, and, and mushrooms. Read it and take a wild guess what inspired this one.
The wind is barely moving the trees, here at the tower. It is clear they’re sharing secrets; otherwise, they wouldn’t be whispering. The wind brings with it many things, like in today’s short story... “What Comes On the West Wind” by @ZailorT crowcrosskeys.com/2025/07/02/wha…
