New Dawn, New Blooms by Angel Mary | A Poem

on

A sudden gleam appeared, as I wandered in vain,
Feeling like solitude, a cool breeze stirred in the quiet air,
As the tides rise and fall, I endure like a beacon of light,
Trapped in silence, the bird longs for the sky, I yearn to fly,
Each bud that blooms whispers a promise, a hope reborn in every petal's grace,
As the night grows deeper, moon beams brightly with a gentle smile,
With every step I take, I carry the spirit of resilience…

Angel Mary born in Kasaragod, Kerala is a dedicated poet with a deep passion for capturing the beauty of nature and the power of hope through her words.

The Experienced Seed by C Swathish

They tell me I should already know the road, though I’ve just laced my shoes for the first time. They laugh when I stumble, asking why I haven’t run a thousand miles yet. I carry nothing but tomorrow in my hands, but tomorrow is too light for their scales. They nod at old stories, wrinkled with years, and close their doors on voices still learning. It’s funny, really— to demand the fruit before planting the seed, to want a song that’s already an echo. I try not to mind, I keep walking, pretending I’ve lived a hundred lives, while I’ve barely begun this one. About the Author  C. Swathish is a published author and award-winning poet from Kerala. He writes about human experiences and society, using everyday moments to explore deeper truths. His work combines simplicity with thoughtfulness, offering readers a clear and reflective look at life and its contradictions

Part of What is a Woman?  Series CHAIN UP NOT, WOMAN! By Bindu Unnikrishnan Break free of the invisible chain, Oh woman! you too are born to fly! Look at the strong wings you got, you might as well explore the sky. The tenderness you show, the warmth you exude You deserve the same, and of course, some respite Breathe some, for the laundry can wait, it is your monotonous life that needs the spice. Walk few steps, dance few more, listen to your heart, if it wants some more In this lovely weather, leave that chore, bask in the sunshine which men adore. Let him pack your picnic bag, while you go for a swim, or trek for a while, Let that dinner be a surprise for you, the way you always did for him with a smile.. Chop that hair and style it through, don’t keep it long ’coz he told you to, Wear the colour you always want, without conforming to your clan. It is difficult to be always righteous and true, you can be sometimes vulnerable too. Let the tears flow and make you light, the smile w...
