Angels, a Micropoem by Eva Petropoulou Lianou

One day an angel came to earth
He saw the faces of humans
He become one of them
He saw the body of humans
He created onebody
He even walk like them
But the big problem was the wings
Where the humans hide their wings??

Three Micropoems by Nilanjana Pachani

< From Assamese to English 
Translated by Rajeshri Senapati Gogoi >

1-
I drowned out my inner desires
In the underwater stream.
It fell like a snail's shell
The dead rhythms of nomadic thought!

2-
I wake up suddenly in the middle 
of the night,
And ask in terror, who?
I peep out of  the window 
and notice, nobody 
The Moon of the desert is sitting on the  leaves.

3-
You offered noise
I drank it as nectar
Making my heart bleed
Now I became blue-throated.

Two Micropoems by Maid Corbic

The Love of Life 
I dream of my love
I walk with steps of hope
never surrender
because love is a weapon
which I will never leave
and I have my soul
to share it with everyone
but I never want to stay
without the love of life
and a symbol of reason!

Man Without Address 
I'm walking dreams with this
I wake up my hope
although everything has stopped
my world still goes on
because my love stands
and sometimes I don't give up
just because i have emotions
and my soul is steadfast
for in him is my peace
forever created!

Five Micropoems by Maria Teresa Liuzzo

Talk Me Again 
Talk me again
Between  gentle storm
Lost in the silver of sands
The season in the river of night
Humbles us.
If distances did not exceed memories
I hold you 
in long blinks of eyelashes
to the sweet warmth
of evey pearl.

A Child's Step
A Sewing the flaps
A gushing of water
That the wind knots
A child’s step!

Hope
Tell me
When you fell aspleep on my breast
And the sun was setting 
on the cushions
I held in them the last ray
and filled that weeping
which did not close 
the doors of hope!

Like the Sea
Shadows we are
Beating the clock
The throb of dawn
The river the sky.
Oh stars! burning on my  breast!
Gone days are coming
Tormented, yet full of you.
Oh, to die like the sea!

The Strong Beauty
The soul is a book
Quivering perfection
Beyond writing
At the top of the staff
The strong beauty
Investigator,
and no weeping is there
drowing her
nor learned joy 
that the evil
forgets the sorrow.

Three Micropoems by Eva Petropoulou Lianou

Love 
We don't have the same way to show our feelings
Our eyes
Our hands
Our body are different 
But love is unique
An energy that embrace us 
Like the morning breeze!

Voices
So many people cry for help
Cry for freedom
Cry for peace
But why we cry in our happy moments
And 
Laugh.....when we are in a very difficult situations?
Maybe this is the self defense of our organism
Still discovering the human brain
What is certain...
It is that we have free will.

My garden
It is life
Everything is surrounding us
Like two arms that embracing our new born
We need four seconds to fall in love
We need eight years to develop our personality
And an entire life to discover
Who we are!

Two Micropoems by Dr. Prasana Kumar Dalai

My Life in Your Name 
When you leave, I 'll ponder over it
What I have lost or gained
I'm even forbidden to write
My good luck has a poem for me
And I feel myself on cloud nine
As I've bequeathed my life in your name.

Ray of Hope 
Like a ray of hope in desolation
And we have filled our life with love
I have lost both my peace and sleep
Sometimes I do feel your crazy love 
Heart has started betraying me too
Before hearts get blended,we have
Words ever spoken like falling stars 
And your heart illuminates mine!

Five Micropoems by Nishat Jabeen

Euphoria 
Growing together
With you
Seems dreams
Reach the premises of
Euphoria, ecstasy,
The heaven
Never can be gained
Without you!

A Cinderella Dream 
Standing in the alcove green of  the resplendent apartment 
I have a cinderella dream 
in the trail of transcending ecstasy
My prince waiting 
assiduously wails the window silently 
With a zealous zest, 
I hover on the barouche on the empyrean way!

PQRS
Polyethenic pain not melting in tears of pique
Quintessential love from your heart's groves 
Rare and exemplary above all grieves 
Steering me towards the throne of a tragic queen.

Deep Love 
My heart is in deep love of thee
Infinite cryptic lines of mine
And the ebullient  emotions invite thee
He accepts my prayers graciously
When I bend down in reverence
To the Lord of me and thee.

Night Poem
The drum beater of dreams
Announces a notion of success
Fortune won't be served in the platter
"Every dream begins with a dreamer"
One has to burn blues and agonies 
To churn it well into success wine!

Eight Micropoems by Hiba Abu Nada

We are in  Gaza before God,
Between an martyr and a witness on the Liberation, 
and we are all waiting for where we will be,
We are all waiting for your promise of truth!

If we die, 
know that we are content and steadfast, 
and let them know that we are the righteous! 

Whenever a line is crooked on the map of Palestine 
Between the cities, the bullets are corrected. 
Eraser for kids, cities correct mistakes with bullets,
Gaza for example. 

The wish that we, the people of Gaza, 
Know; Everyday I used to choose your senses, 
why am I wearing a jilbab and you wearing a shoroud?
An the occasion has changed!
I'm going to die and you're going to heaven! 
What a loss, I wish we together! 

When we go to our Lord, 
we will tell him to answer at 
the Arabs and the brothers in 
the second division of the homeland first. 

It's like this, we are all in a open field,
Snails are exhausted from the siege 
and death carries a huge barge and waves 
it at us left and right, 
We all die and the field is empty and the Snails fly!

This night will be difficult we will be cut of them 
all the causes of the earth, 
and we will not be cut off from the causes of the sky,
In God's farewell Gaza one by one.

No time for big funerals and proper goodbyes, 
No time for much time,
There's a sensational rocket coming, 
We'll settle for a sneaky kiss on the forehead 
and a quick goodbye and wait for the new death,
No time for goodbyes...!

Three Micropoems by Shafkat Aziz Hajam

Came Down 
A boulder came down a hill lock 
It slipped over a big rock 
And it blocked the way 
From school kept me away 
As to school I couldn’t walk.


I Thought 
My brother asked for a cup of tea 
I prepared for him as I was free 
I thought he would feel nice 
He asked for water thrice 
No sugar! Chillies I’d put into the tea!

No Reason
There is a man with long stiff moustaches 
With them his front body he scratches
Once he scratched his son 
He’d no reason else than fun 
Now his whole body has band aid patches.

Three Micropoems by Eva Petropoulou Lianou

Peace
Fear of being unhappy
Without education
Without respect
Without empathy
We will be only slaves to manipulation!

Greece
The daughter of the sun
The daughter of the sea

Come back to the Light
I forgive you
You forgive me!

Problems
They are created because
Irresponsible people
They believe they can change future with
Money and force!

Four Micropoems by Mir Samsul Haque

Sameness 
Same space
Same sunlight 
Same earth
As of now...
Same night. 
Same moon
And this sameness in shambles!

My Own Shadow 
My unrestrained tears telling
A turbulent story
That I'll stay forever alone with my hurt
On the time's steps, Im incapable of recognize my own shadow!

Recall 
How long should I pursue
My pseudo passion
I feel this deeply
My self is same but in shame
When I recall your name!

Desires
I'm a dreamer
My desires will never die
My hope lies
Above the ochre dust
Where despair dies!

Five Micropoems by Sabyasachi Nazrul

Suddenly
I am walking alone in the shade one night, 
Walking and wondering when the sunrise will be
Suddenly! Who is this newcomer in white clothes? 
The moon peeks out from behind the clouds. 

Old Crying 
In the grave of an old child next to a hundred years cemetery, 
Old mosque or in the middle of the night, 
The sound of crying is coming
Animals still crying in the flower gardens!

War
The roads were supposed to be 
Snowed under the rubble, but where! 
Being fired, bullets are raining down
Weapons are ringing, who won?

Fasting 
If I fast and pray 
I will be happy, 
The Lord will reward me
With best gifts 
Progress and regress. 

I Want Peace 
I do not want war, 
I want peace, peace and peace 
We want peace, 
We want a world of peace!

Six Micropems by Jatinder Aulakh

Wave
Don't say me 
goodbye!
I am ocean 
and 
you are a wave,
You will have to 
come back
In my arms!

Mirror
They Said that we don't
Want to see your face.
I replied, "I have no face,
I am a mirror". 

Newspaper
Reading the newspaper 
in the morning
And waiting for a cup of coffee
Is like exploring the world at home.

Light
Demon of past
Forced me to slavery
Of unfavorable and 
Unpleasant concerns.
A prodigious light
Came upon me
To unchained my spirit.
I am unconstrained now.

A Sage in Contemplation
A Banyan tree standing quite
Wind blows and leaves play music
Birds come to spend the night.
I can't understand his dialect.
I can just watch
A sage in deep contemplation
From ancient ages.

Restive Souls
I am laying
in the open courtyard 
looking at the flying clouds,
In dim light
A flying bird appeared on the sky, 
Suffocated night 
And some loafing
Restive souls.

Three Micropoems by Rajeshri Senapati Gogoi

An Unfelt Promise
Love is an invisible force
Whoever burns feels life
An unfelt promise
who tells everything 
In a silent way!

Feelings 
Passion know we see
The best and most beautiful things in the world
It cannot be seen or touched, 
But 
The heart only can feel!

Hide and Seek 
I want to blossom into a beautiful memory 
in your heart
With the toras of the blue sky
I want to play hide and seek, and get lost
A lonely night, when a tired mind wants to rest
Will you respond with your hands outstretched
I'm tired and want to rest today, by your side!

Five Micropoems by Sabyasachi Nazrul

The Metal Bird 
Standing on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea 
Waiting for you
You will come riding 
on the wings of a metal bird
The metal bird brought you 
down to Alexandria!

Cannot Wait 
No no no 
The journey is not over
Cannot wait! 
The boat leaked 
As the water enters little by little 
I sank to the bottom of the sea!

Waiting 
Dewdrops on the tip of the grass
Waiting for a kiss 
on the lips of the holy rose
Just you and me
Come on, hug me...!

At the Sea 
I went out one night 
without telling you
At the sea
The journey is unending 
Do you keep the door open today?

Do Not Delete 
The right to knock 
on the door of the mind
I lost when I was not in you!
Not in existence
do not delete the memory!
