Fireflies of Time

Fireflies of Time

Fragments of moment
paddling swift and frenzy
through layers of present.
Filaments of passing time
wafting in evanescence
to get folded in the memory.

Oh fragile life!
You are the remnants
etched in the illusion
squeezing frail reality
from misty ruckus
in mysterious shade.

Beneath azure sky
on the bank of transience
rest, numerous existence
embedded with myriad dreams
and shed desperate selves
as fireflies hugging flames.

Honorable Poetess Maaya Dev,

Fabulous write based on life illusions and hugging flames of love, thanks for sharing, much regards and applause, wishing to add this short verse to my favorites, seeking your kind permission to appreciate and review through my column POET'S PEN, hopefully, I would be starting a poetry column ( inspirational four line poems, 101 poems, which will be compiled later) based on your specific verses with a title  as " MISTY MOODS ", this will be like my earlier columns namely CHERRY BLOSSOMS (based on Poetess Cherie Sumner's poems) and TWILIGHT MOODS (based on Poetess Valerie Lynn's poems), your kind approval is being sought to start with my new inspiring poetry project as a humble gift and reward to Poetess Maaya Dev.

I like the below lines, your concluding stanza

Beneath azure sky
on the bank of transience
rest, numerous existence
embedded with myriad dreams
and shed desperate selves
as fireflies hugging flames.

- Maaya Dev

Being inspired on Maaya's above lines, I just scribble as below:

  • If life is an utter lie,
  • Then let me inspire,
  • in between a bridge of hope,
  •  Interconnecting with the
  •  Fabric of truth,
  • Let this planet Earth
  • Offer me no further,
  • Give me no fewer.
  • - Williamsji Maveli

Good luck and let God bless you to shower us with more poetic rainy drops from above

With much regards & respect,

WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
