February 25, 2023 – February Issue of the Poetical Journal:In recent years, the January issue of the Poetical Journal offered a summary of the previous year. In it I highlighted my favorite poems, pictures, jokes, and quotes. However, this year, the February Issue is serving that role. This year begins the 23rd year of publication. My favorite poems from Year 22 were The Snowy Bench, A Blip, and Moment. The vignette is brand new. The content came as a wonderful surprise in January in my P.O. box. The vignette is entitled A Postcard from a Friend.

January 28, 2023 – January Issue of the Poetical Journal: In recent years, the January issue, the final issue of the Poetical Journal year, is a summary looking back over the previous year, highlighting my favorite poems and pictures. (The first issue of the PJ was published in February, 2001.) However, this issue we will pictorially focus on a special event that occurs annually at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi over the Christmas Holidays, the lumineria display. (Faithful readers are familiar with Thanksgiving Point as they have seen the pictorial displays of tulips and gardens that I have published in previous issues.) Hence, rather than wait until February, I believed the timing for these pictures was a better fit for the January issue. This issue completes 22 years of publication, having never missed a publication date.

The three new poems are First Flakes, Ice Castles, and Sky.

January 5, 2023 – Colorado November: The pictorial section focuses on Colorado as we visit family. All three poems, Art of Living, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Fruitless Efforts, are rather serious. Two talk about lessons learned in life and the other about a life well-lived but cut short.
