Join the party at Rajani’s with your own micro poem in the comments section or using Mister Linky. There are no rules – whatever the muse whispers!
Today is free verse. We are to keep it down to whatever size is appropriate for “micro-poetry”. I’m trying the Quadrille (44 words) again. 🙂
Whispers
you said you were leaving
I thought the winds passed through your mouth
as you spoke
carrying words away in emptiness of space
I heard only the echo
but echoes reverberate to haunt
now I’m left with traces of your smell
and diminishing whispers

diminishing whispers… the sense of loss and grief is so strong. Thanks for sharing Celestine!
The pleasure is mine, Rajani.:-)
Haunting,
Elizabeth

That void is so poignant and palpable here: “but echoes reverberate to haunt”. Great lines, Celestine.
