A Bee Chases a Butterfly

by Kiyana Tavakolizadeh

A bee chases a butterfly
Flapping her frail white wings
Flys avidly unto the lea
Sprightly swirls in subtle swings

A bee chases a butterfly
A leaf plunges off a tree
Long thin grasses stretch to extreme
Reach out to seize glare's glee

My Princess' Sorrows

by Henrique Mirahy

the stories that i wrote and wove

Thoughts and fascination cringe
My breath now pulsated by the throbs of wanton

Searching Within

by Aditi Hayaran

I think and think; more and more,
Maybe within myself, finding my lost soul.
My shining self, the brighter hue,
When did I lost my spark so true?

Did it just dissipated, is it straying?
Or hidden somewhere I can't find,
I'll think again and keep the thought flowing.
Maybe I'll find it all again somewhere hidden in my mind.
