Memories
a whiff of jasmine
in the breeze
her ashes

Absence
bleak moon
the weight of silence
at his departure

Echo of Silence
to the end

favour me O Lord

We are trying the Naani today at Rajani’s. The Naani is a four line poem with 20-25 syllables. The first two lines provide the subject that the next two bring to an interesting close.
I dream of shooting stars
collapsing into smithereens
the bouquet you offered
shrivels at your touch
2
the day you left
you left with the sunshine
how time flies
this sunshine in my baby’s smile

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

I’m so sorry I couldn’t post or participate in Rajani’s fun for the past days. I attended a two-day Continental Colloquium for Pan-African Winters in Accra here. It is ending tonight with an Awards Dinner that I couldn’t be part of since I had to report at the office for an emergency. 🙂
Does this resemble a tanka? 🙂
Burning
carrying you in my heart
is a weighty affair
if only I could off load you
light, paperweight
just like I drop my pants
