@ComradeRuhi a rose and a paper bird in the rain

@sadcat13 or well, doesn´t even have to be in the rain, just the rose and the paper bird

@sadcat13

A Glimpse Out My Window on a Rainy Day 

The road down below is filled today.

With the laughter of children that love to play. 

Boots splish-splashing as they shout "Hurray!"

I smiled with joy at such a fun display. 

My keen eyes continued to survey.

I found a rose laying drenched on a stairway.

Its beauty, in sorrowful decay. 

Hushed in this storm are lovers' dismay. 

I frowned, and chose to look far away.

Suddenly, I noticed a stunning array. 

The thunderous clouds had gone astray.  

Soft pitter-pattering drops, a sudden "Yay!"

There it was, a sight that made hearts sway.

A rainbow over every dark alleyway!

The sky shines with sunlight this midday. 

The birds snuggled in trees, their wet wings did weigh. 

A paper bird flew, without delay.

Through the misty skies, it soared and did not fray. 

The sun frees weeping souls with every warm ray.

Birds still fly. Storms they do not obey. 

Looked out my window, each sight did convey...

The road down below is filled today.

With those that dance in rain's bittersweet ballet.

@ComradeRuhi

Living in a simulation sometime in the future

@Torean 

from brick to bone all is there

Striped away and I’m left bare

in my hand or in my sight 

without my grasp non is right 

if you can’t be seen I will not look 

if can’t be half I will not touch 

with my faith I won’t be shook 

present or vacant it mean not much 

if I can not perceive then I won’t be seen 

(just a quick something I wasn’t following any particular poem structure but I always like then to rhyme)

(Tw possibly) Kids in war (they dont hv to be kid-fighters, just in times of war i mean)

@ComradeRuhi

@LoveMyMoonflowers

Not as lovely as you, Moon! 😤 

That sounds great! I thought this would be a fun way for us all to connect with each other more, and also share ideas about what we can write! 

@ComradeRuhi

Thank you, Ruhi! 💙 

@ComradeRuhi

a falling leaf with two points of view, the leaf (resembles the end of itself)

and someone who loves fall (possibly because it reminds them of new beginnings)

btw this is absolutely stunning, keep it up Ruhi! ^^

@Est3lle this is such a great idea 😊

@Est3lle

In these ember leaves I see your face

I see your smile

and I see your grace. 

You said that you had lost it all

and that you were scared

that you would fall. 

But when you fall it gives a chance

for someone to catch you

as you softly dance. 

You need not be scared if you fall

For I'll be there

through it all. 

I'll care enough to embrace your life

and care enough

to ease your strife.

For their is beauty with your pain

and your beauty

lives forever in my brain. 

Now winters here and the leaves are gone

but your still with me

as your memory lives on. 

Your life was full of color and brought me a smile

so I will wait for autumn again

even if I am waiting awhile. 

For in these ember leaves I see your face,

I see your smile

I see your grace. 

@cresentrose2811

awww. this is so beautiful. 🥺 thank you so much for sharing 💕

@cresentrose2811 not me trying not to sob in the bus over how beautiful it is 😭

Here’s one I made about love…

Love is a diamond

Everyone has it deep down inside

So much it’s never easy to hide

Ten thousand laughs when you’re feeling low

Yet one act of kindness can spread it so

Love is a diamond 

When darkness sits it will be bright

Shared and it’s a pretty sight

A jewel that’ll always be free

Well, if you take it properly 

Love is a diamond

No more than a pebble of light

But still, theres nothing more right

Sharp only when tossed around

But soft when carefully, strongly bound

❤️❤️❤️

@ComradeRuhi a poem about struggling to write a poem

@cresentrose2811

I Can't Write A Word

(A silly poem by me)

I can't write a word
Not matter how I try
This is getting absurd
I think I might cry

The words escape me so
I wish I had a thought
My brain must be dough
A poem this is naught

So I'll move on from here
I give up for good  
I'll try again next year
Do you think I should?

@genericbeing hahah, it’s hilarious. Thx for making my day a little lighter 

@Lilacrose398 Glad I could :)

@ComradeRuhi

Write a poem about your bedroom floor.

I’m not sure why but this prompt calls to me each time I read it

@birthdaycop255 I tried my best

The sun shines

and i rest my gaze

on what of my life remains

A med kit.
To keep myself safe

A pile of books.
Some read, some halfway through.

Some slippers I forgot I own.
A bottle graveyard on the floor.

An embroidery I started as a gift
Not finished yet, but will for sure return to it.

Stationery, journal, tissues and some tech
Some tangled cables, chargers, an orange bucket.

Over all it proudly rules
A manequin with an arranged blouse.

Someone may see a mess
But it´s all pieces of who I am.

@sadcat13

That is so pretty

@BlueMangocat5071 thank youuu, I tried 😊

@ComradeRuhi

Blank, testing, paper

I know these are words it's just I love to write poems about what's happening in my life right now, and right now it's testing so that's why I thought of that.

include the line "A heart once mended is harder to break"

Another fight, another slammed door

Your words stab down right to my core

Fool me once, don't fool me twice

The second time comes with a steeper price

Round and round, and round we go

To all the places I already know

You would think that I would start to learn

That lust isn't love, yet my heart still yearns.

A broken mess I shall not be

Even though you chose to leave.

For we have done this all before

I know the story. I know our lore.

Despite your torment, I won't say it's a mistake.

For a heart once mended is harder break

@cresentrose2811 beautiful and evokes deep emotion <3 you have amazing skill

A heart once mended is harder to break, 

A life once revived is harder to take

Tears, once shed, are harder to cause

Thoughts, once started, are harder to pause

Words once uttered are harder to erase

Time, with its wonder, has a merciless pace

Support, and kindness, are all it will take- 

And the heart thus mended shall be harder to break.

It might not have been what you’re looking for but this just came to me, so here!
