Milky Way of Poem

By Manishi Baranwal

"“Milky Way of Poems” an anthology of 45 poems covers various topics of human life. Poems depict topics such as chastity of a girl, for her it is paragon of virtue, a precious ornament. Leisure time describes admiration of beauty. Amulet on breast is weapon against evil and rape. Loneliness shattered the dreams, teaches real sense of hurting. A glamorous girl walks like pretty diva. Wealth brought a handsome faced wife. Money is all purpose tool, can fix many things. Mathematics add blessings, multiplies joys, divides sorrows. Reality of life is that lust cannot be fulfilled till death. True love exists in books only. It is puzzle of pain and pleasure. Celebrate love that ignites spark in heart, makes one realize that he is still alive. Understand the feelings of single mother. Collect shattered pieces of heart; give a blast of love to restore. Draw figures of vivid thoughts on silvery sand. Illusions are created by artists to enact game of heaven and hell. Wayfarer is to be given mask of free smiles. Love poems in heart nursery germinate to incarnate lover’s body. Jasmine is a girl, mine of treasure, ocean of pleasure. Love is when she opens slowly her deep navel and round breasts. Love is defender, love with passion. As poet I use pens of different colors that depict emotions of the poem. When I was a little girl, everyone loved and kissed, I still possess that love. A tattooed girl smiled, her lips got tattooed on my heart. Love plant fruits are vibrant with secrets, full of life. Relatives are like fish in water, slippery, catch them to release. As coal I will burn your heart, with emotions of smiles and tears. I tried to conceal my love, my eyes expressed them. I am a poet I reflect the image of society, I have narrated the truth, scenes of life. Poetry is pure imagination, conscious refinement of words, originates in emotion."
