Life and death Poems
Talking Of Love
by Satish Verma
Selene, the goddess of
the moon, promises―
not to fall in love.
Putting on hold―
the shrine, the statue,
going for sale.
No epilogue was
needed, at the end

Loud Portrait
by Satish Verma
Inspired by you,
I will write a nameless poem.
Would you sign on it?
Draw one beautiful
art on my lips. I will wipe
out your scalding tears.
Listen to your heart
for trapped voice in cage.

A Mid-night Reflection on Life and Death
by Gangaram Bhattarai
When body dies;
when flowers shed;
when the cosmos dines;
when the sun fades-
icy shadows
and I, and my
consciousness be
a universe,
or part of it,
I will be gone.

For the last time/Востаннє ((in Ukrainian)
by Halyna Myroslava
і він видихався
ця швидкість була не його
і плутались кроки
і серце стискало без жалю
ховалося сонце лягаючи в очі на дно
і він відчував
що все далі від світу
все далі
і чув він як мозок
вже не відкидає шуми

You Can't Outrun Death
by Jesus Betancourt
If you think you can live longer
Trying to overcome a force that is stronger
Beware you can't outrun death
Time runs out with your last breath
Throughout history snake oil peddlers were around
Trying to prolong life selling a remedy
To this date none can be found
So keep running to reach your longevity
Distribution/Розподіл (Ukrainian)
by Halyna Myroslava
Коли
сизою пеленою
заволочене яйце ока нового світу
викотившись із темряви
теплого гнізда
на світло
повчитись бачити
барви
одну за одною у білому
РОЗЛУПИТЬСЯ
