Wisepicks For 31 December

Rinku Shah

Immobilisedย 
by a mobile.

My patience knew no limits,
As I staredย 
at the screen and digits.
Waiting for you to call.
I built a virtual wall.

 

Sherry Greene

 

So absorbed, so still
Unquenchable fill
The weeds encroached pace
Infertile headspace
We’ve replaced books
With screen-lit looks
My heart feels sorrow
Oh, what lies tomorrow?ย ย 

 

Anjana Surendran

 

Amidst the struggling sails of lifeย 
all she could sow was seedsย 
of affection and cheerfulnessย 
but all she receivedย 
was complaints and dismay

 

Sulekha Pandeย 

 

I sit in my self inflicted isolation,
my heart bleeding with desolation,
I try and findย 
the answers to my questions,
gathering algae on my mind,ย 
getting entangled in weeds of a kind,
I find no solutions,
though I indulge inย 
senseless communications.

 

Shilpika Bagh

 

A click clings meย 
to a virtual world;ย 
blending in its colors unheard;ย 
still feel that “void” ;ย 
that I can’t “avoid “.

 

Asmiya S

 

Everyday I am waitingย 
for your reply sadly
Melancholic leaves tillowsย 
behind me slowly.
