Rick Daddario at Postcard Poems and Prose Hawaiian native, artist, and author – Rick Daddario – has a beautiful existential poem published at Postcard Poems and Prose. He is an artist with decades of experience and his work with light and shadows is unique. His poetry leans toward short forms which sit well in a postcard format.

Barry Charman at Postcard Poems and Prose Barry Charman’s haunting, image-rich story, “Dawn”, was one of three winners in the March Fiction Contest at Postcard Poems and Prose and deservedly so.

We spent three enjoyable days completely off the grid over the long weekend. We snowshoed into the cottage t Lac LaBelle and out onto the lake. After drilling

Postcard Poems and Prose – Call for Entries
The snow is still arse deep to a tall sheep here on the shores of Lake Superior. We can’t wait for spring. To help while away the idle hours of March we are launching our Spring Poetry Contest. The window in time for entry is brief since spring is already breaking the horizon in many locales. The two art prompts at the top of the page will help start the saliva of creation flowing – so will our first prize of $24.19 (Poets are different…so are we.) We also feel ...Read More Here...Read Full Post
March Publication Schedule at Postcard Poems and Prose Here on Lake Superior the icepack extends out several miles into the great lake. We are still in the throes of winter. That said, we are excited about March. We have a great lineup at Postcard Poems and Prose. Our three Fiction Contest Winners and three Honorable Mention Awards will provide six pieces of wonderful flash fiction for online visitors. We also have a smattering of great poems on the schedule. Our April Poetry Contest will begin accepting entries in addition to an end of the month surprise.
As if all that weren’t enough March is the best time of year to snowshoe and ice fish. We also will put out 70 to 80 taps in our maples. That means we will be boiling sap into syrup most evenings. And of course there’s St. Paddy’s Day which, for fiddlers like me, is a big time. Whew! No wonder I ...Read More Here...Read Full Post
Yesterday morning our digi-thermometer screamed 4.8 below zero. (That’s -20.4 Celsius for our UK friends.) Today we’ll receive another six inches of snow…in short, just another winter day in the U.P. In March, after battling the various faces of winter, it’s nice to think of summer. Writing summery poetry helps. Looking at sunrise over the lake photos helps. The coup de gras, however, is too eat summer. Start the day with it. Embrace it in our bellies. So we did. Chokecherries picked in the blaze of July and made into jam, zuchini, parsley, thyme, and young red potatoes all combined to give us a taste of summer at breakfast.
I grew up eating potato pancakes. They were tasty, super-greasy, and slightly more dense than lead. They ...Read More Here...

Winds gusting to 40 knots and an impending blizzard didn’t scurry these finches into hiding. (Note angle of feeder in picture.) We did, however, set a new record at our five feeders and needed to refill them twice during the day. There’s simply something special about a blizzard and being snowed in for hours on end. A pioneer spirit envelops the household. It’s inspiring and, since the power never went out, I was able to write all day and evening. What a luxury.
Sixteen hours and eighteen inches of snow later and ...Read More Here...Read Full Post
