Haiku on Solitude
byDeborah Bennett 29th July 2024
this river too
flows toward loneliness -
hunter's moon
from the gangway
no one passes through -
october light
all the leaves
treeless -
autumn moon
those who are near
are far away -
wind through the roadside blooms
Poems on Solitude
by Fatma Zohra Habis 30th July 2024
winter isolation
I read a book
with a thousand pages
morning solitude
alone with my thoughts where
rain falls softly
moment of realization
alone on the beach
just the sound of waves
Ku on Solitude
By Kavita Ratna 31st July 2024
tripping over…
an ear-worm
interrupted
the caress
of coral tipped parijatas
blushing sky
craning up
walls grow tall…there
a slice of sky
Short Verse on Solitude
By Swaraj Raj, 25th July 2024
at eventide
a thousand dreams bloom
in forest’s eyes
splashes of desire
in a waterlogged paddyfield
an egret in breeding attire
dangling on a spider’s web
glistening dew drops
wondrous union of beauty and terror
Haiku on Solitude
By Steliana Cristina Voicu 26th July 2024
scented chaos
plum blossoms cover the bench
while waiting for you
pandemic queue at the store -
the distance between us
a MilkyWay
magnolia losing petals…
the only place our dreams
meet each other
Teleajen river -
how endearing the wind
through the autumn reed
