comfort of the ceiling fan
or
hot cup of tea

after the farewell
she doesn't wave back --
moonlight
even colder on my face
than
October's snowflakes
Chen-ou Liu
all the colours
of windblown petals
at
the rave
a hurley-burley
of gyrating dancers

chestnut
in our city
is missing
the

Lesson Learnt
There was no more room
inside her Isolation
… for olive branches,
well-wishers or welcome hugs…
yet,
miles and miles for distance.
