Stories worth reading
A layer of snow rests on the deck. Just a dusting. The reflection of tile on the storm door blends with that thin layer of snow.
Light tries to breach the banks of snow clouds that fill the sky. The same clouds that promise more snow now that teachers and students return.

Frank J. Tassone lives in New York City's "back yard" with his wife and son. He fell in love with writing after he wrote his first short story at age 12 and his first poem in high school. He began writing haiku and haibun seriously in the 2000s. His haikai poetry has appeared in Failed Haiku, Cattails, Haibun Today, Contemporary Haibun Online, Contemporary Haibun, The Haiku Foundation and Haiku Society of America member anthologies. He is a contributing poet for the online literary journal Image Curve, and a performance poet with Rockland Poets.
