After days and hours spent poring over manuscripts, judges Rustin Larson, Nynke Passi, and Christine Schrum are pleased to present the winners of the Iowa Source 2006 poetry anthology: Leaves by Night, Flowers by Day. The anthology contains poems from 34 poets living across the United States and in Australia and Indonesia as well. We received scores of submissions, but somehow we managed to whittle them down to these 65 poems, which stood out in some way for all three judges, whether for the poem's humor, poignancy, lyricism, striking imagery, craftsmanship, or a skilled combination thereof.

Rustin Larson is courageous in that he is not willing to take refuge in the ordinary. His poetry has been described as "stylistically diverse," but as this comprehensive collection demonstrates, the style of his work is not applied as a matter of form; rather, it is derived from the nature of the poems themselves. So the readers experience is one of wholeness, of the seamless expression of style, idea, imagery, emotion, and message. I read a lot of poetry, and believe me, it has been pure pleasure to immerse myself in The Wine-Dark House. -James A. Autry
