Featuring Herb Stokes: Upon retirement from Swissair New York, Herb Stokes and his artist wife, Marianne, moved to the Intracoastal Waterway in North Carolina. They did the boat and beach scene for several years but after a wonderful summer trip to Portland decided the Northwest would be their home. He took an ongoing creative writing course at Clark College and hasn’t stopped writing since.
From “SALAD FOR TWO”
By Herb Stokes
We sat at a too small table
on a sun washed terrace
overlooking the Mediterranean
drinking wine from pewter goblets.
A blue haze was in the air
and in your eyes.
