Waters loves swan's dance
Fish fly as nature commands
Hear summer's sweet laugh
Based on a lucid dream while im sick in bed, haha
Once I recover Ill be back more free verses hopefully!
Much love,
Lyn
The world in a place
Never dreamt of, for itself, nor its inhabitants

Everyone is going through something
That nobody should

Ripping at the seams
Much to accommodate, distressed

Some on the edge, the going is tough
Losing to stress

For some there is everyone
The fabric of love, three-plied strong

If possible be there for someone
A blanket stitch at the seams, saves fine

There is much to explore in the world we inhabit
We need our world, and the love it needs
Let’s give what we can, and receive the same

Roses atop spun gold
Sea-green eyes so still with love
Songs are sparrow-sweet


This haiku is dedicated to the muse, Erato.
I feel such a kinship with her as she is the muse of lyrical poetry.

Unpolished Ink
Grass grows much faster
After a shower of rain
Embrace the raindrop



Yellow rays, swept off the sky

Light Showers through the grey

There goes another day

Flourishing with laughs
Smiling eyes under her mask
Wear wreath of applause


This haiku is dedicated to the muse, Thalia
We all need to kick back and find a way to laugh, hence why I love Thalia so much, haha!

Glass bottles hold the sun's heart
I write like no one reads
Iced tongues knots my thorned heart
I'll share beauty while I bleed...


I have a few things to get off my mind...
Be back soon,
Lyn x
Now
Moments of simplicity wasted not

To make hours of happiness
Clusters of madhumalti
Bloom through the dark of the night
Fragrance of the flowers
Leads to a bright new day
Madhumalti(Combretum indicum, is the scientific name of the plant, also known as  Rangoon creeper / Chinese honeysuckle)

A mask for all, to live
A means of livelihood for some

Smiling eyes behind the mask
Unrecognised face, keeping distance

Parks in the neighbourhood closed
Odd hours for a walk in the neighbourhood, unmasked

Work from home, not for all
Economy at risk, lives eclipsed

The sacred fire stands witness to the 7 vows taken, a marriage solemnised
Designer masks unveiled

Paranoia may ****
Purity still protects, wins
Here’s to mask an unprecedented year

Unmasking realism
Nature’s green, truthful and clean
Heals every being
