Three Micropoems on Love by Lilian Woo

YOU'RE A RHAPSODY

You're my muse; you're a rhapsody

You're the orchestra of the symphony

That played the serenading melody

The lyrics are as sweet as honey

You're the light of my destiny

We'll be together to complete our journey.

□

CUPID'S TOUCH

Red roses represent our love

You're as sweet and lovely as a dove

Intoxicating essences emit

Your charm, I couldn't resist

Cupid's arrow pierced our hearts

Bond our souls with Cupid's touch.

□

ENTWINED SOULS

I feel the warmth in your arms

Drowning in your kiss and charms

Our souls are entwined and hearts melting

The essence of love is intoxicating

Sensuous eyes reveal much affection

Throbbing hearts reign in passion.

Micropoems on Light

● Jyotirmaya Thakur [United Kingdom]

I stood and watched

The day unfold in morning light

Like petals of a flower

Pushed by wind power!

☆

Twilight caught the breeze

As Sun was setting

On the wings of birds

The light was sleeping

Leaving the sandy shores behind!

☆

● Mir Samsul Haque [India] 

I'm ablaze sulkily for thousand twilight's

Her scarce arrival puts me in the ignition of fiercely flame

Oh, luminous luna you may cognize the pinches of my heart

You aflame all alone on the azure veil 

Be a witness of my lonely griefs!

☆

● Lilian Woo [Malaysia] 

Glorious morning 

The sun flashes vibrant light

Brighten up the day 

The glow of blooming blossoms 

Is emitting sweet fragrance. 

[Tanka: 5-7-5-7-7]

☆

crimson rays of light 

let it shine, light up your life 

bless with happiness.

[Haiku: 5-7-5]

☆

● Ranjana Kashyap [India]

It's a bright waking night! 

Tonight is the festival of lamps, 

The sky is showering the stars, 

But I was unaware ; 

One day for us in the pavement of my heart, 

So many lamps of love will light up, 

One day life will be so bright with your love, 

I was so unaware of this!

● Jaipreet Grover [India] 

Seen or unseen

Illuminates with celestial rays

The power of phosporescent inner light

Is bestowed by the divine light

To enlighten your True Self

Just use it wise! 

☆

● Nishat Jabeen [Saudi Arabia]

My truth is in the clasp of gloomy despair 

O' Lord of the all Heavens pass a command to the universal lamp

Sprinkle a little more twinkles

And shimmer not just to the dusky countenance

But enlighten to my shadowy existence.

☆

● Jyoti Nair [India] 

Sugar maples scamper into our porticos, 

drenched in orange-ostentatious conundrums, 

ambling through our variegated lives... 

our lives; these anagrams of 'abendrot' vine-longings! 

[ *Abendrot, is a German word; it means evening red, sunset glow, sunset-light, purple light, afterglow, sunset.]

☆

● Maid Corbic [Bosnia and Herzegovina] 

Lightness into the darkness place

Nature brings always new emotions

Which take this place full of charm

And nobody can say that it is illusion

Since we live into the present stage!

☆

● Sumil Sharma [India] 

In my darkest sleepless nights

Her touch gives me the courage to see the light

To stand against the fear and fight

Through the gloomy night

And finally see the sight of the light

A Mother's Touch, the perpetual might. 

☆

Tanka Poems by Lilian Woo

BLAZING SUN 

The blazing sun smiles 

Shining from the distant miles 

I love the brightness 

It brings positivity 

To energise up my day.

GOLDEN SPLENDOUR  

Morning has broken

Sunrise in golden splendour 

Smiling happily 

Relish the charm and beauty 

Of each wonderful moment.

Tanka Poems by Lilian Woo

Breezy Night 
In the breezy night 
Winds caressing in silence 
Moon is gleaming bright 
Stars are glittering above
Giving colours of the night. 
□
Flow of Rhythm  
Clasping of sea waves
Rushing to the golden shore
Seagulls soaring high 
Listen to the song they sing
Melodic flow of rhythm. 
□
Golden Sands 
Waves kissing the shore
Slowly retrieves back to sea
Water shimmering 
Sunshine giving reflections 
Seashells lay on golden sands. 
□
Gorgeous sunflowers 
Gorgeous sunflowers 
Facing the radiant sun
Bright yellow petals
Smiling, blooming in splendor
Nectar storing deep within. 
□
Gift of Freedom 
Above the blue sky
The gentle doves are flying 
Amazing delight
Dancing gracefully in pairs
Enjoy the gift of freedom.
