Forever Might be Short

#NaPoWriMo - 2022 

Early Prompt- A line of Emily Dickinson's Poems.




In the times we live

Life has turned upside down

A disease here, a war cry there

Forever might be short.

A jotted line...

With unsaid words

Has left many broken dreams

In the pits of burning dust.

Forever might be short

As bloated egos

Control the universe

As innocents die somewhere

Wrapped in a gory shade.

Hope is everywhere



The Sunday Muse #204

                                  Artistic Image by Morysetta


However much life tests the patience

One does find the way

Peeping from the shadows

Even in the darkest hours

Insanity rules the world

Sowing the seeds of hatred

Every heart bleeds

Voicing for peace

Entrapped are the egos as

Reality is out of their reach

Young and old desperate to

Witness the hopeful chime

Heralding a new dawn

Effervescently hoping for 

Righteousness to prevail as the

Earth, belongs to all, and every life counts.

A Mind of One's Own

 The Sunday Muse #202



They were friends

Those soundless words

Filling lonely hours

In silent raptures.


A woman was born

Understanding the world

Through the dancing muses

A lonely war she fought

Fighting against the odds

The world stood still.


In the periphery of solitude

Phrases, verses, words, and rhymes

Merged and created

A powerhouse of daring thoughts

She molded her dreams.


Immersed in those silent friends

Life took a full circle

When she faced the gender bias

She burned the patriarchal pages 

Letting her actions

Speak louder than words.

Give Peace a Chance

 The Sunday Muse #201



The winter,

In the heart

Wants to melt

But, the noises around

Tighten the grip 

As senseless greed

Harvests a blood thirsty few.

The image of soft earth 

Fragrant and welcoming

Takes back to a timeless space

Where free-spirited innocence

Wandered, embracing nature

Seamlessly, without care. 

Memories, those  cherished images

Humbles the existence

As a war crazy madness envelopes

The receding horizon.
