Drifting away in dreams;
Musing the day, it seems
Mahima Giri
MahimaGiri
I live in Houston, TX. Poetry has been my language when it comes to expressing my thoughts artistically. It is a beautiful inner voice that speaks and culminates into words that weave the emotions together. I enjoy and experiment writing poems in various forms especially inspired by nature. You can find my work at www.allpoetry.com/MahimaGiri and also published in CLRI, Haiku Journal, The Taj Mahal Review, 50 Haikus, Molecule - a tiny lit mag.
Hour 5: Night (Form: Etheree)
Night
draws the
curtain of
stars lit by the
lantern of moonshine
and lullaby of the
sailing breeze captures the sleep,
the sparkling streams cascade into
ripples that gurgle against the rocks
as playful fireflies retreat behind trees.
Hour 4: Poetry Marathon (Form: Acrostic)
Parade of poets penning an
Occasion of feelings that
Emerge as a fountain,
Treating the mystical words,
Relishing the values that
Yearn towards a faculty which
Manifest the surrounding and
Accolades as fruits, ripen
Round the clock
Actively castling ideas
Through the voices that
Hear and echo silently,
Overflowing the minds like a
New dawn every hour.
Hour 3: Raindrop Rendezvous (Form: Monchielle)
Drizzling crystal raindrop
Born out of a nimbus
Races its way nearing
an unforeseen journey,
leaves a thunder striking.
Drizzling crystal raindrop
leaps into the tall trees,
spraying fresh morning kiss
and shrouded fog reveals
whispering woods in bliss.
Drizzling crystal raindrop
drips over a green leaf
swiped by a butterfly,
forms lens on a petal,
reflects the high blue sky.
Drizzling crystal raindrop
scrambles along the roof
glides through the window pane
splashes into ripples
As I walk down the street.
Hour 2: Time (Form: Pleiades)
Travelling through ages,
Trails that made memories
Tying the bonds that last,
Thoughts pervading the hearts
Transiting the seasons
Transpiring days and nights,
Treat the generations.
Hour 1: [dripping time] (Form: Haiku)
dripping time treasures
memories into future
reminisce the past
Thank you poetry marathon!
Hello Poets! This is my first “Half Marathon”. I am excited to be a part of the poetry marathon family this year and hope to participate more in the coming years.

This is definitely going to be a beautiful experience.Good luck to all the participants!!!
