Most wonderful poem madam. Unbelievable. So beautiful.100++++++++++++
(cont.) i will keep in mind that you have single (?) Haikus in your list of poems here also. well, i see you DON'T specify that this Short Poems is haikus, but i think they are meant to be. bri ;)
Thank you Bri Edwards or choosing this poem to your August Showcase.You rightly pointed out.I was trying to write Haiku and these poems were part of the process.
i enjoyed reading these and shall share them in my/(our) August 2018 showcase of poems on my PH site. Thanks! ! i have sent a long copied/pasted online description of 'Haiku' to you in a PH message. three lines, often about nature, rhyming or not, and can be read in one breath, etc. i'd say you did a fine job. to MyPoemList (cont.)
bharati, i wanted to read a poem or two by you this morning and just read these again. i like all of 1-3, like the choice of words, and the subtlety of nature-mind associations i can relate to. -glen
In every bitterness there is hidden a sweetness, so let us forget the bitterness and enjoy the sweetness. a great and amazing poem.
bharati, i like your haiku, tanka, your short poems. you have a good feel for this kind of expression. on these short poems, i particularly like poem-2 and poem-3. i get poem-2 and think immediately of the last stanza of a poem of mine with the title the sun is lacking. in poem-3 i think of a cow- in ordinary life a large creature- who can find shade under a living thing that's bigger still. interesting to think of a tree as a nurturing thing. this comes to mind although it's not closely related to poem-3, the largest biological organisms on earth, from what i've read, are mycelial mats in the ground from which mushrooms grow. appreciatively, glen
A beautiful series of images about nature. I must say I had the same feeling as Susan, each successive poem giving me a new delight. There is such precision in your writing. Most enjoyable. Love short concise poems. Tom
All these short poems give us beautiful glimpses into Nature! Lovely write Bharati...! A sure 10
When I finished Poem 1, I said this has got to be the best of show! ! ! Then I read Poem #2, and I said oh! this must be best of show- it is absolutely setting me out in the rain. Then I read poem #3, and saw the peace and quiet of the cow swishing its tail in the shade of a tree and I sighed happily and said, ahhhhhhh this is the best of show! Poem #4 flirted with me with its sunbeams and rainbows and then Poem #5 nailed me with its twilight.loveliness! ! ! ! Bharati- -you are the undisputed mistress of this form! ! ! 10+++++++++++++++
Anything through the eyes of Ms. Bharathi seems beautiful and amazing! And so are these beautiful short lines so sweet to fill the hearts of readers with bliss. Optimistic in view and captivating in thought!
Your comments are really very encouraging, dear Queeny Gona Thank you very much..Stay blessed.
Hi Bharati, Exquisite little poems, full of positivity. Of course, that is what your poems are about. Only Bharati can hear and enjoy a cuckoo cooing in Sweltering summer and slithering concrete roads. And only her poetic heart can see the twinkling stars in the sky, when everything disappears into the black hole of night. Her positive thinking tries to visualize a silver lining in every dark cloud. Very powerful poem. Fantastic imeages, speaking directly to the readers' heart.10++++
Your comments coming with a star fills my heart with much delight.I have read some of your poems.You are a great nature poet.Thanks for reading and commenting on my poem.
A dark cloud hangs Golden sunrays scattered A rainbow appear... my nature poetess. Kudos to you. a lot of praises today. to you dear Bharati, tony
