One Breath Poetry, # 1

rainy afternoon
i unburden myself to
a stranger

​
holiday tradition
that one aunt nobody
mentions

by Jahnavi Gogoi

​
​the dark side
of her temper
crescent moon


not all rainbows
lead to gold
stargazer lilies

​by Gareth Nurden

the park empty
but for mosquitos
and lovers


Can I name
one of you mine,
Douglas Firs?

KAUSHAL SUVARNA: With the conversational tone and charm of offhand observations, Suvarna champions—as editor of neo-sabi voices—poetry born of authentic perception, that reveals profound beauty and insight within the everyday, scattered among everyone, not in rarefied realms reserved for a select few.
