Spring, Like Us

-
Introduction:
“Spring, Like Us” is a soft meditation on the transience of beauty, peace, and joy. Using the tender image of spring petals falling on a window sill, the poem invites readers to find comfort in life's fleeting moments and appreciate their quiet strength. Like spring, we arrive, blossom, and fade—yet in our short stays, we offer colors, warmth, and wonder.

The pink petals shower

On the old window sill,

Peacefully and gracefully—

Soothing your mind, they will.


A sense of euphoria,

A tender breath of peace,

The hush that blossoms bring

Makes troubled thoughts cease.


Spring just gets better

As I soak in the sight,

The sweetest of fragrances

And colours so bright.


They come after so long,

But only for a while—

Yet even in passing,

They never fail to beguile.


A fleeting beauty,

A brief, gentle stay,

But oh, the joy they scatter

As they dance and drift away.


Isn’t life just like them—

So short, yet so bright?

Still bringing smiles to faces

After every silent fight.


We bloom, we break,

We rise again each year.

And though we fade,

We always reappear.


Reflection: “Spring, Like Us” leaves behind a gentle truth: that ephemerality doesn’t diminish meaning—it deepens it. Just like spring brings life after harsh winters, we too carry joy even after struggle. The poem reminds us to see value not in permanence, but in presence—that something doesn’t need to last forever to be beautiful. Perhaps, our smiles too, like petals, fall softly but leave the air scented long after we’re gone.

Welcome to Lyric Haven – A Sanctuary for Poetic Souls

-
Lyric Haven is more than a blog—it’s a sanctuary where words weave stories, and poetry breathes life into emotions. Each piece reflects a personal exploration of feelings and experiences, with the intention of connecting with readers on a deep and meaningful level. Poetry, for me, is not just about crafting verses but about forging connections with those who find comfort, understanding, and meaning in them. What Inspires My Poetry? Poetry, for me, is a way of putting thoughts into words—a form of self-expression that gives voice to emotions, reflections, and untold stories.  My poems come from a blend of both personal experiences and imagination. Some pieces will explore raw emotions, while others will weave narratives. Inspiration often strikes from the world around me—fragments of conversations, the hush of the night, the echoes of music—all of which find their way into verses that reflect what the heart often struggles to say.

Threads of Letting Go

-
Introduction: Some love stories don’t end with a storm—they fade like whispers in the wind. This poem captures the bittersweet journey of parting ways, learning to release the past while holding onto its quiet echoes. It is about love, loss, and the courage to let go with grace. We built a world with threads of dreams, Woven in whispers, soft as streams. But time pulls tight, and hearts must bend, For love’s long journey nears its end. The weight of goodbye is harder still, A promise shattered against my will. I hold your memory, close and tight, Yet now I must release this fight. I must learn, like petals, the art of letting go, Falling softly, without a sound, where wild winds blow. And like autumn leaves in colors bright, I too must yield to the changing light. Our love was bright—a fleeting, burning flame— Now flickers low; there’s no one left to blame. The echoes of us linger on, A silent song, now nearly gone. It tears at me, this cruel release, A heart that cries, yet seeks its...
