Symphony

all I hear is this song…

carried to my ears upon waves
as they ebb and return
a symphony of love
played on instruments
of the heart—

those harps that pull
me into the ocean
teach me 

to ride the waves

    as they ebb and return
    a symphony of love

  • Haiga by Neetu
    October 26, 2025

    sultry afternoon
    in the vast cornfields
    reaping gold

  • Unwanted Companion by Neetu
    September 26, 2025

    I wait eagerly
    for absolute darkness
    to lose my shadow

  • Stagnant by Neetu
    August 26, 2025

    I drop pebbles slowly
    watch them fall
    in a shallow stream

  • Foreboding by Neetu
    July 26, 2025

    she reaches out
    touches fog
    she had hoped
    for the sun
