Four Micropoems by Orbindu Ganga

Thoughts 

Thoughts are caged

Never to breathe,

Eyes couldn't stop

To whisper

In tears.

□

Wishes

Blank is furious

Not been seen by any,

The painting wishes-

The rain flushed the colours

To breathe again. 

□

Last Time 

Heaved to sign one 

Last time

To say 

I love myself,

Before the dust 

Takes me away.

□

Introspection

I whispered to my shadow

To show me the other side

Oblivion to the self,

She gave me the mirror

I read the self.

Three Micropoems by Priyalakshmi Gogoi

Dust

This time the petrichor felt different

Like I wanted to rub it all over my skin 

Feeling her words that mingled 

With the dust leaving a trail 

Of her poetic soul.

□

Flow into You

There's a brook of emotions 

flowing silently inside me 

Calm yet melancholic

Crooning along the ups and downs 

Flowing to meet you one day...

□

What Love is Not

Love is not about domination.

It's not about showing supremacy 

but it's all about how you make 

each other feel at home. 

It's about giving each other that space 

to love oneself and feel the freedom.

Peace, a Micropoem by Lianou Petropoulou

Peace,

First we need to learn ourselves

Then how we want to be loved

After what will become 

when we grow old

After find a place

A work

A partner

A dog

A cat

Baby

Home

Holidays

...WAR!

Dejected, A Micropoem by Dasharath Naik

Going to live an unlived life 

I faint as I start ;

Time smirks 

For I fail to chime in with it ;

And my journey 

Abruptly ends ere it begins.

Two Micropoems by Anna Ferreiro

The Awakening of the Rattle

Hug me tight

Keep my heart

Kiss my soul

bring me

where there is no time and space we build

Take me to the heart of Spring

where is it

even the night

it is painted white.

□

The Eyes

Look of the moon

color of sunset

a ray of love, shines

unceasing eternal wayfarer

of an unexplored sea

barrier Reef

untouched

Everything is new now

life again bubbly

on the borders of Ireland.

Two Micropoems by Jyotsna Sharma Prdeep

Lord Krishna

Life is rough

and wild

No one is cute

and mild 

But when I feel

fragrance of thy

My heart plays

Upon a lute of joy!

□

Love

Love is a pain,

in which

Heart becomes

like a sky

Full with tears-rain!
