Best Neoteric Poems
Shikata ga nai- POTD
Time speeds away unmindful,
ages added on to eons,
piling changes on change,
it moves on,
seldom posing lull and loll.
With the current rushing swift and fleet
we race past from old to new
from times primeval to times neoteric
watching the ceaseless chain of births and deaths

Heartbroken“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”
Khalil Gibran
In days of darkness,
sad stars shimmer like somber souls.
Upon the return of solitude,
whilst shaping strings of silence,
a troubled tongue becomes a soundless voice.
In each tear there is torment.
Reminiscing unredeemed...

Blessings of Silence
Belief is the nemesis of uncertainty,
in times of torment we keep faith
in God's gift of blessings bestowed upon us.
In a world without morals
Children of summer seek refuge
in colder climates; leaving behind
loved ones in the care of the almighty.
In days of Devilish darkness,
sad stars hibernate like...

Where Are a We Going? I am resigned.
I was once full of neoteric life, fresh as morning dew.
Blank as a hardened sponge waiting for that morning, to
soak in all this life.
I was curious and surprised by the innocence of...

forbidden fruit -
I immerse ...
nigh naked
in your keen and carnal insight ...
the rags of my inhibitions
strewn at my feet …
are my thoughts still my own
care and coil
or have you plucked those from my boughs
made ripe
the fodder for your dire divination?
peel the fruit, fresh
and slice it to your...

A Fresh Start a New Beginningby : Sashi.Prabhu (zeauoxian)
The day before yesterday was laced with dismay in every possible way,
Yesterday was better but has into the backdrop faded away.
But today is another day,
New stuff to think, do and say.
Today I will brave the world all alone,
And enjoy my...

My Modern Womanmy 21st century woman,
my modern woman,
You have been first of the
born free
one year younger but already
more worldly than me,
traditionalist, but still liberal
so you're a left wing and a
right wing
which makes it easier for you
to fly above all of us
cultivated to...

P.S.All of these poems
beneath my skin
haul the weight
of every shed tear
and I'm getting wetter
with each neoteric sob,
but darling I found myself
a pretty way to scream
and it's much more fetching
than being peevish
from so many starless dreams...

Happy Birthday DarlingMoonbeams shine, sprouting sepia stars
Her heart's deepest recesses
Glow in the waves of a rose lake
Views that enliven the pulse of the nerves
Fairy tones bestow fragrance
Clouds of jasmine chilled and orchids nipped
Silky brown lips spoke in infinite bliss
A lunar tale of astral longevity
Shining souls mingled with...

Freedom Should Not Be About RaceAll of us should know by now that there’s one race:
The Human Race. Narcissism and nepotism
Are destroying the very febrile fibers of our society
Greed and narrow-mindedness, at an increasing space
Are eroding our soil like mites devouring the mechanism
Of our ingenuity. This is odious. What a...

7 Days SuccessOn Monday
I plan my week and
Make neoteric friends
On Tuesday
I deal with my pending works
Fetch money from borrowers
On Wednesday
I engage with m studies and
Spend some time on clinching knowledge
On Thursday
I clean my messy house and
Spare time on education platforms
On Friday
I finally had some time for myself
Do...

Gillian - A Birthday AcrosticGiant heart, relentless kindness to all she imparts
Intelligent, bookish, fashion-smart,
Leader, plants her trail with dedicated grace and flair—so you'll follow.
Laughter, as tuneful as the airs of larks or swallows.
Inquisitive, indicator of a legal luminary,
Admirable looks and acuity sounds in sharp commentary.
Neoteric, check the artistry...

It’s a natural part of life; it’s part of growing up
Life is a sleek roller coaster that goes down and up
There’s a Carrefour which we must turn to a point
To pause, think, fathom and reflect upon and to move on
To...
