April 2020. Lockdown and Solitude!

Is the future bright?

Or will it be as dark as night?

The world is shaking!

Everything is overwhelming…
And it seems like an absolute ending!

Many of us are alone...

We feel that the only company is a silence that we have at home!

Even if we get millions of dollars for this pain or an unlimited amount of food…

What can we do now? No trips, no love, no spas, no honeymoon, no everything?
Many just wish they could buy a person’s company…money is a gain…
But having someone to hug is what really feels good!

"April 2020 poem"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

PoetiKonstellation named April a month of Lockdown and solitude… This is the last task for Poetry Month. It is called “April 2020”. This post is dedicated to all those beautiful lonelies who stayed strong during this lockdown, who were enjoying their own company and probably secretly on those dark nights wished to hug someone to feel the warmth of love. Of course, this poem is too emotional, but PK feels that many lonelies won’t admit it, but this month was not easy, the poem “jokes” about buying a person instead of food or tv shows, well… (smile) some things are really positive, why? It’s because we can begin to see our lives from a different perspective, what are our priorities now? What is the most important thing in this life? Is it career, food, clothing or love? Perhaps everything plus health? Yes, why not? Choose everything (smile.) Is it important to focus on the outer decorations or our inner world, our circle, friends, spiritual growth, and what makes us really happy? Perhaps, this period helped to rethink many things for some of us, and understand what was making us unhappy and what can make us really happy. Yes, April brought up many dark and deep thoughts. But anyway, Viva April! Whatever you were, you just were, never be like that again! How was your April? What you missed the most? What do you think is important to you now? Peace and Love! Oh May, show us good manners and be the good boy, please! (smile) Laugh, Dream and Love! Smile!

True Love Is Also A Vision!




"I have a vision that cannot be seen…


It’s not a pointless idea or a strange dream…


I see true love that visits me!


It comes to me and asks me not to lose my firm faith, sweet affirmations or fantastic beliefs!"







  for @PerfectKosmos (Twitter/Pinterest)

"Vision poem"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

Today’s task is to write a poem about “Vision”. So this is a poem about vision that PoetiKonstellation has. It is called “True Love Is Also A Vision!” Many people want different things in life. For some people love is very important. Some people want or need love in their lives. Others don’t need it, but need other things. Maybe it’s a good idea to find those who match our needs and wants, because many people are more interested in certain things and ideas in their lives and that’s ok, we just have to accept that and try to connect with those who prioritize the same things, hopes, ideas, beliefs and ,of course, visions (smile) as us. What are your visions? What are your priorities and dreams? Did you find someone who matches your life ideas? Excellence! Love and Peace! Love is beauty! Laugh, dream, love! Smile harder!

The Difference Between An Illusion And A Dream.



"We can’t hold an illusion of love with one hand,

An illusion is like shallow sand!

First, it takes you high and makes you feel something very deep!

But when you see through it and understand the false hope and deception, the illusion makes you weep!

Only true love and feelings are what they seem,

They make you understand the difference between an illusion and a dream!"





  for @PerfectKosmos (Twitter/Pinterest)

"Golden Shovel poem"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

Dear loyal followers and readers, sweet strangers and subscribers or just perfect visitors this is a Golden Shovel poem. PoetiKonstellation decided to borrow the last words for this challenge from a poem called “A Dream Within A Dream” by E.A. Poe. His poetry is amazing and PoetiKonstellation loves Edgar Allan very much (smile). Therefore, no wonder that PK has chosen his poem for today’s task. Actually, she was so inspired that her poem named “The difference between an illusion and a dream” was born! Attention: PK enjoyed very much writing this poem that brought her so many pleasant emotions and sensations, so if you can feel them, don’t be surprised (smile.) Well, the whole challenge is ending soon, please support PK if you want with your likes or comments, read her poetry or just the way you can and want! Do you know the difference between an illusion and a dream? Do you think they are the same? Great day! Peace and love! Love is beauty! Laugh, dream, love! Let’s smile!

True Love! Double Check My 26 Words For You)





"TRUE LOVE,


I dedicated so many poems to you!


I can give you 26 more words,


But I know... my violets will probably still be blue..."

"endurance poem (26 words)"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

Today is a good day, right? This is an endurance poem that has 26 words. Please count them! (smile) This is the task for today. It’s dedicated to true love. What is true love? Does it exist? What attracts it? What does it look like? Peace and Love! Love is beauty! Love, dream, laugh!

My Multi-million Dollar Collection Of Intangible Items!



"Feelings,

Memories,

Trips,

Emotions…

I collect these items and then

turn them into exciting words

that come straight from my heart 

without using any kind of caution!"







  for @PerfectKosmos (Twitter/Pinterest)

"collection poem"

PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

It’s a good day today, right? This is a poem that describes the things PoetiKonstellation collects! This is the task for today. PoetiKonstellation thinks that collecting material items is good but the real value lies in things that are intangible, you only lose them if you lose your memory, otherwise nobody can take them away from you. Yes, remembering the good times on days like this is a good idea for us and for PoetiKonstellation as it gives her inspiration to continue writing her love and motivating poetry. Why? It’s because PoetiKonstellation is a romantic page, and it talks about love and related topics. It’s a page that promotes romantic love in a world of tangible items and single focused people; although it is now extending her “product line” (smile) to motivating and light thoughts (smile) love and romantic ideas will still be part of this page! Visit PK frequently, to read new poetry and words! Peace and Love! Love is beauty! Love, dream, laugh!

"skipping rhyme-children"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

It’s a good day today, right? This is a skipping rhyme! This is the first time that PoetiKonstellation writes something like this. First, PK didn’t want to try it, this page actually planned to abandon this task; however, she wrote more than you see posted. Why? Actually, once PoetiKonstellation began writing skipping rhyme she couldn’t stop her creativity. Sometimes it’s better not to begin (smile.) Well, PK doesn’t also want to bore her readers with kid’s rhymes either… So here is the best selection of skipping rhymes: “Mary and the Tree”, “Give me sugar”, “Peter and His Bunny”, “Martha and Apple Juice”… The other will be stored in PK drafts (smile.) It’s cool to write skipping rhymes for children! Good experience! You can enjoy reading them or maybe playing with children during quarantine, if you want (smile.) Peace and love! Love is beauty! Laugh, dream, love!

Dear Romeo! With Romanticism, Capulet...

Dear William,

Do you know that men like Romeo don’t exist these days? 
Do you know that no one is fighting or dying for love…
Romance is weak or almost dead!
There are no surprising visits to the balcony or serenades!
Romeo easily leaves Juliet without the need to explain...
Everyone is so independent in their relationships
that love feels lonely as an unnecessary decoration or element!
Thank you… at least we can still experience that old school romanticism and passion through your imaginary words and events!

With Romanticism,

"To Shakespeare/letter-style poem"

PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

Today is a good sunny day, the birds are happy! The task was to write a poem to Shakespeare. PoetiKonstellation decided to write him a letter style poem. What would Shakespeare’s writings look like today? This poem doesn’t mean that true love doesn’t exist or that PoetiKonstellation doesn’t believe in it. But if you watch the movies, read the books and the social media posts, you’ll see that old school romanticism may still exist but it is very rare. Perhaps, the gestures of love are seen as shame or weakness by many. Eternal love is like an expensive diamond. Perhaps, people have fears to express their feelings for two reasons. First, they are afraid of inadequate reaction from the other person; nobody wants to seem embarrassed. Second, they have fears to expose their feelings because they think it would make them vulnerable. Everything has to be under control. No risks are allowed. But love doesn’t like to be controlled, love loves (smile) brave people who take risks and do amazing things for it! Do you agree? Do you think true love needs heart-shaped postcards with beautiful words and flowers or do you think that love needs yield-curves and spreadsheets? Well, we all have a different understanding of love, perhaps we just need to find the one who matches our idea of it! Peace and love! Love is beauty! Dream, laugh and love!

An Absolute Boss Of Nature! A Leader! A Father! A Lover! A Motivator...Who Is He?


"An absolute boss of nature!
A lord who touches everyone he desires!

A lover who accompanies you on any adventure!
A power generator and the best inspirational fuel for fire!

A rebellious hairdresser who controls the direction where your haircut and style should flow!
A soft and strong father who cuddles and punishes things like:
Oceans, grass, trees and land!

A cool dancer and creative director of a tornado and hurricane show!
A cold or warm motivator of rain, snow and sand!"




So Darling, Who is this Mighty King?
Hint: *DNIW*

"kenning style poem"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


If your answer is WIND! You are right! You won a prize, an emotional satisfaction! Congrats! Good! This is a kenning (today’s task!) PK has no experience writing kennings but sometimes having zero experience brings you new unforgettable sensations and pleasures! Honestly, writing this kind of poem was a lot of fun, as it involves lots of creativity! What else is everywhere when we are outside? What else touches us without asking permission? What else feels alive? Of course, the WIND! The missing piece of the puzzle, yet the most important element, the guest that we all expect to appear in a scene, where is he? Who is he? Is he the right answer? Where will PoetiKonstellation meet him? Outside! Of course, the wind is always outside! We can find fresh air only outside! The wind moves everything, especially when he gets excited! Nor does he care about all the obstacles he just flows to get what he wants. What can we say? He is a winner, a leader! Inspired by extremely strong winds, PK sees outside her window every day.  Dear Visitor of this blog, do you like the wind? Are you scared of the wind? Doesn’t it feel like he cuddles us sometimes? Love and Peace! Laugh, dream, love!

Drinking Wine In Valmontone. Radical Freedom Wins The Cup!


"Perhaps, someone competed to win in sports or politics in the past!
Perhaps, one person wanted a monarchy; someone else wanted a dictatorship, while many wanted a radical democracy!

But overall, people wanted something that could be good and reliable, something that could last!
Perhaps, someone was a good sports player and won a good prize or even the famous Betsy Gray cup!


Yet I just want radical freedom from all the world chaos that is happening now. But could the world regain its great luck?
I have no idea; I’m sitting in Valmontone with a glass of wine!

I don’t even know if things went from bad to worse or if it’s all for a good thing that will come after some time…



I’m confused, looking at my glass of wine who is like my best friend who acts as my substitute for love, painkillers, lack of pleasure from hot kisses, hugs and lost joy by simply getting me drunk…

Oh! Wasting time…Am I still allowed to dream of something beautiful? Am I still allowed to think of that excitement that I had during my trips? Who knows? Wine only masks reality; maybe I should ask my slice of pizza or those Parmesan chunks…"


  for @PerfectKosmos (Twitter/Pinterest)

"radical freedom style poetry"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


This poem is created from three random WIKIPEDIA articles as the task requires. PoetiKonstellation just took those chunks of information and "created" this new Parmesan cheese flavor or hot pizza for you, my dear readers, guys and visitors!(smile) Perhaps, we all need a radical freedom from all this junk that is happening right now! PoetiKonstellation knows that it is not easy to have restrictions, when you can’t walk outside, can’t meet new birds that come with spring, can’t admire the trees and flowers… But don’t be sad! Don’t get drunk, especially if you are alone! Who knows when this is going to end, even if this chaos ends, maybe some people will still feel affected by this situation… But don’t get drunk! This poem tells of a girl who is confused and gets drunk in some Italian city, accompanied by her "friends" who are a pizza slice and some chunks of Parmesan cheese (smile.) Today PoetiKonstellation is surprised by her fantasy and the idea of this poem, but maybe it’s suitable for these times! Many people are depressed and get drunk to avoid the pain of this whole situation…However; this poem is here to “embody” all the chaos and confusion, and to show that drinking or trying to kill the pain is actually not a good idea, sometimes it’s better to face it and understand it, so you can heal it and continue your normal life. Lovely person, this poem is to show you that you are not alone, we are all going through this turmoil, stay healthy! Maybe, we are all bored or confused… However, love can sometimes help…but! Lovely beauty, what are you doing these days? Dear Reader of this blog, are you alone like this page? Do you know where joy can be found? Beauty is love! Love is beauty! Peace and love!

Darling, My Love Words! With love, PK...(Postcard Poem)


"Your love makes my spirit sing!

Every day, you make me feel like a blooming spring!

I want to paint cotton clouds in your amazing blue skies!

We hide our passion, which slowly burns in a secret smile and a spark that is visible in our eyes!
Therefore, we are afraid to show them because this feeling makes us shy!"


  for @PerfectKosmos (Twitter/Pinterest)

"postcard poem"


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

This is a postcard poem! It can be used on Lover’s day, if you want to impress your special person, who makes your heart beat, perhaps, this love words won’t conquer the heart of your love interest but they will make them smile for sure, although that interest of yours may not tell you that, but PoetiKonstellation may tell you that it will happen (even secretly). Why? Today, you can hear fewer love words, poetry, serenades, and where is that old romanticism that people used to have in the 18th century? Oh, yes like those balcony visits at night, the escapes into the forest on horses that were secretly taken from the neighbors, flowers on the doorstep, and mysterious postcards with signatures like (I love you, but no name)… Or those old postcards in the 20th century that you used to receive in your mailboxes with messages of love from friends, family and secret admirers… Today, the only balcony and windows visitors that come to PK are doves (smile.) However, who knows, maybe the Universe is romantic and sends those doves as love messengers…(smile) Therefore, PoetiKonstellation decided to create a postcard with love message as part of her task for today, although due to the quarantine, PK might not be able to send it, hopefully, it can be found here or maybe in the email message. But anyway, of course lovely visitor, you can use this kind of message to declare love to your cute love interest or surprise your sweet lover, your dear spouse, your ideal partner, your soul partner, the love of your life, your best friend. You can do it any day that seems convenient to open your heart using a simple but adorable postcard! PoetiKonstellation also invented the design of the rose postcard you see (pictured!) Dear Reader of this blog, do you like romantic gestures? Flowers, postcards, plush toys, chocolate are still excellent to receive, right? Love and Peace! Love is beauty! Laugh, Dream, Love!

"my day long diary poem"

 PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


It’s Sunday! Every Sunday is different, but here is my day long diary poem (that requires adding one line every hour from 9am to 8pm)! Of course, some things usually take longer and others less but overall a poem looks like this! It’s a day to relax, although we are in quarantine but we should respect the weekends (smile!) Take a look at the photo of my supreme breakfast!) The hot and cheesy buns you see are called khachapuri (traditionally it’s a Georgian cheese pie) but PoetiKonstellation decided to cook miniature (individual) portions! They are very soft, yet crispy and extremely cheesy. Moreover, there is a creamy salad (also homemade) that you can add to these hot buns! What happens after 8:00pm?? Well…Want to know more? Sure! Simply…Sign up for the PoetiKonstellation premium account to access extended information (smile)! Dear Reader, how is your day? What is your usual Sunday schedule?

When/Who/What/Why/Where/How? Question Poem.





"When is the right time for love to appear?


Who is love? Does love have any ideas or fears?

What does love think of me?

Why does love exist?

Where is the place where love is real?

How does love feel?"






"question poem"



PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


This poem is made of pure questions. Perhaps, there are no right or wrong answers to these questions… Perhaps, some answers don’t even exist. Perhaps, those guys who have already found their love can have the answers to these questions…Perhaps, they have no clue. Perhaps, love is magic. Perhaps, you have to know some special arts to attract it. Perhaps, you don’t even have to do anything. Perhaps, love decides when it wants to appear in your life. Perhaps, love is not ready yet. Perhaps, love has to be born. Perhaps, love has its own schedule. Perhaps, love is in quarantine. Perhaps, love is still sleeping and doesn’t want to wake up. Perhaps, love is a seed that you sow in spring so you can enjoy its fruits in summer. Perhaps, love is a philosopher who thinks too much. Perhaps, love is a mathematician who calculates each step. Perhaps, love is something divine that we can’t simply explain. Dear Reader, can you answer these questions? What is love for you? Peace and Love! Love is beauty! Laugh, Dream, Love!

My New Land...‘Lost’ My Words! Re-Draft.




"When she was three, she was forced north…
She lost her Georgian accent!
Not long after, when she learned to walk, she had to use her running force!
New words and phrases started to fill her mind as familiar words and food became absent!


Her new words and sounds began to grow like her hair and she turned her back on her old land…
The mother tongue disappeared under the moonlight…
New pronunciation, vocabulary and lifestyle became her new amends.
She was happy, but sad to lose words that disappeared every day like the old night!




If she could have found her words under the new sun,
She would have eaten them all with joy!
She would have swallowed them like a honey bun…
She would not forget their tasty recipe that she would enjoy!

She wanted her old tongue back; but she was laughing a lot with her new sounds…
She loved her Georgian accent but she just got used to life on her newly discovered ground."



"re-draft poem"
re-re-re-drafting challenge


PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:

Hello Lovely Person! This is a poem number 17! It is an original work of PoetiKonstellation. The creative style and idea also belong to PoetiKonstellation. However, the original idea belongs to Jackie Kay. Her poem called “Old Tongue” is the basis of this re-draft. Honestly, re-drafting poetry feels strange, because when we read poems we simply do it for enjoyment, but when we re-draft someone’s poem, we start feeling the author, it’s like we become part of their drama or happiness for the re-drafting time; especially, if their poetry resonates in some way with our life, then the bond deepens in a sense that we can’t explain but only transmit through our new poem, where our new words say different things but still convey some emotions or ideas of the original work. In the official poem the author remembers her struggle to lose her Scottish accent and her words…PoetiKonstellation fully understands her, because the more languages we speak the better we feel, especially, when we travel or have the possibility to read more books, watch more movies and learn to cook delicious dishes from countries where those languages are spoken. Yet when we lose our mother tongue or replace it as in the case of Kay or PoetiKonstellation, we not only experience the loss of a language but perhaps, we also lose part of our culture and our roots… Many people and families migrate from the places where a different language is spoken. Then, they struggle to pass it on to their children and other generations… Sometimes we lose more than one mother tongue across generations, and we cannot guarantee in this globalized world that tomorrow our children or grandchildren or their grandchildren… will speak the language that we speak fluently… But perhaps, it’s also good, because nothing is stagnant and we must always evolve! Dear Reader, what do you think about losing your mother tongue? How would you feel if your future generations did not speak your language? However, no matter what language we speak, the most important thing is how we feel! Love is beauty! Love and beauty! Peace is a new form of joy! Love and Peace! Laugh, Dream, Love!

Owl. Children's Poem. Translated.




"What is that sound in the night wood?
Is that a train that runs around?

Don’t worry! It’s not a train,
It’s a bird of night gloom, it is called an owl!

Every night, when the woods calm down,
It will be hungry in the most awful way, so it will fly in the dark to hunt mice
That have not yet gone to rest!

Dear Children, don’t worry, if you ever hear this sound again in the night forest.

I am telling you right now that it’s just an owl!"








"translated poem"



PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


This poem is a translation of the children’s poem called “Owl” (Jiří Dědeček) written in Czech language, since the task was to translate from our second language, so PoetiKonstellation decided to try Czech poetry. Honestly, translating poetry is not an easy task; this is not the first time that PoetiKonstellation performs this kind of task. In the past, she even received a few awards doing these kinds of translations that were published. However, it’s much easier to do this challenge if you use your own languages which you speak fluently. In this case it was not that simple, especially for PoetiKonstellation who loves to rhyme the words. English is a very complex language for creating poetry that rhymes…Now; can you imagine how you rhyme words if you have a specific text? Hopefully, you get it! Of course, some additional words have to be used and some words will be removed, some words will mean almost the same yet won’t be the same words… The last word “sound” is actually a word “voice” but to make the poem sound better (smile) PoetiKonstellation thought that “sound” sounds better (smile.) Dear Reader, have you ever tried this kind of task? Maybe you don’t speak Czech; however, would you read this poem to your children in English? What kind of foreign poetry do you like? Peace and Love! Laugh, Dream, Love…

O I A





Nothing works,




Nothing lasts...



It's hard to find that right word that will knock



down a solid wall of apathy or a cold glass!










PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:



Nothing lasts and it’s good for the bad things that happen to us! So when nothing works, it won’t last either, someday we’ll say goodbye to that thing either! This poem is supposed to only have vowels of the PoetiKonstellation’s first name, so it has only O, I and A! It’s not an easy task since English words love to have the letter “E” inserted everywhere! It’s totally understandable; perhaps it’s a good letter to have in the middle so that the word feels complete and creates a perfect sentence with pleasure! Well, this poem is nameless! Call it whatever you want! PoetiKonstellation gives all visitors freedom to feel comfortable! Thank you for your support! Well, PoetiKonstellation will post these special poems; however, there will be different topics for different categories of people. PoetiKonstellation knows that there are many broken-hearted people and that they need support more than those who have already found their partner and are happy without any poetry or motivation…Especially, during these tough days when lonely people have to fight against their extra loneliness! Greetings to all! However, not all poetry will be related to love, because there are many other things to focus on besides love that is sometimes hard to find… Finding a relationship is easy but finding love is not! However, there is another type of love that sometimes we don’t even notice, but this is another poem and story… Dear Reader, do you know how loneliness feels? If you are single or alone, do you think that it is still possible to find love during this turmoil? Love and Peace!

Nature Has All Kinds Of Art!


"In the middle of the green park,
There is an image that looks like painting!
It evokes a symphony of emotions that have a spark
And it causes an amusement of feelings that like notes are constantly changing!

This beauty has a lot to say,
It has a flower, a mushroom, a leaf and a bird!
Therefore, this contrast makes up a melody that eyes can play!
The picture speaks a lot of joy without a word!

However, distance is required to enjoy this show,
The proximity of details can ruin the event!
Nevertheless, here comes an unexpected guest which is a big crow
To gracefully add a hint of passion that is impossible to invent!


This is how this intriguing act unfolds and ends!
Nature is amazing at how magical it is in creating its own scenes and trends!"


"modern sonnet"



PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:


Hello Quarantined People, no walks are allowed! No parks can be visited during these times. No sturdy trees can be touched outside! Some suffer because they can’t go and see the hot beaches, otherwise they may become infected with guilty pleasure! Others still take this risk and have dangerous exotic experiences without measuring the consequences, or maybe they want to intentionally lose the relationship that they had with their health. But if we don’t care for health, it also doesn’t care about us, so perhaps it shall leave when it is mistreated and disrespected! Yet we all have free will. Everyone’s choice must be respected. We only say love and peace! Yet those of us who used to be single or even lonely are not surprised. Greetings to those lovely and strong lonelies who are alone at home! The only unpleasant feeling that we may have is that there is a total disconnection from nature and its beauty! But nature was also tired of us, and maybe that’s how it decided to go on vacation, firing all of us! Now it indulges in its intimate moments with birds and cuddles with bunnies, squirrels and other cuties, and we can’t disturb it, because we are all in quarantine. This poem is a modern sonnet. It is called: “Nature has all kinds of art!” This is the first time that PoetiKonstellation goes through this exciting experience, but it feels good!  As a young girl she fell in love with sonnets, when she received Shakespeare’s book as a gift! The style, the rhymes, the logical composition…Oh, it looked so perfect, it was impossible to put the book down and change it even for a good dinner or breakfast! Oh, how great it felt to read those words! Books can also be our friends and many may understand this, during these times of isolation! Dear Reader, do you like Shakespeare? Do you miss the paintings and shows that nature offers us? Do you think nature enjoys its vacation? What do you miss most about nature? Peace and honesty, beauty and love save time and hearts! Love is beauty! Peace is a new form of joy! “Honesty breaks hearts but saves time to find a new purpose and direction, after a certain period that one spends in recuperation! Confusion makes us assume that the answer is no, and that one just must leave, one must go! No interest, no talks lead us to assumptions that one should evolve, when a sense of self-love is finally provoked!” Love and Peace! Peace!

My Journey To The Unique Tree Thanks To My Best Friend Named Solitude von Loneliness!


Loneliness takes us to places we can’t even imagine going to when we have a company of our lover. So I remember the day when I was alone and loneliness came to me with books, snacks, soda, candles and we spent the passionate night together screaming with excitement and with the book loneliness gave me. Later, my friend called Solitude von Loneliness invited me on a romantic trip to visit a unique tree that grows in the lands that are hard to find, because it’s a place that is complicated to reach due to many obstacles. So my words were:






“Let’s go! I feel the courage
That I won’t show.
Danger intrigues me with its mystery!”


Loneliness left me halfway to that tree, it was a big baobab or some unknown tree, I didn’t know, but it was perfectly fine for me to be alone. I recall my thoughts:



“Trees are always just trees
But there is no other tree like this, 
and the sky is more than blue.”


I thought that I would have to be on this magnificent journey alone, I was trying to decode the map, but there was no one to ask. It’s not a place for leisure, lazy tourists or overnight pleasures.


I screamed when I saw you!
You were gorgeous 
and I fell in love with how tall your were!


You had the strength to stand in a place like this with me. Oh, you must be like me. I more than liked you, but forgive me, I didn’t want to show you that, I was supposed to silently admire you for your beauty and uniqueness. 


The tree, the journey and that amazing place!
Your beauty was there
But the connection was established when you touched my hand.


The force of relief visited my spirit immediately when Loneliness could not have more power over me, but loneliness introduced us to each other through this journey that I stored in those images that I didn’t show anyone, and that’s why that place remains unknown for many travelers.


Call me selfish, jealous, strange, perfect, unique, loving and amazing! 
You can yell at me!
But I wanted someone like you just for me!


This was our secret space, and maybe I am not like that but you asked me not to write about my trip, and that’s why I never told anyone about the sacred moments that we used to share, the same moments that I spend with my snacks and my best friend Solitude von Loneliness every night. Oh, I am back in the arms of my beloved Sol (von Loneliness), even though you are there, and you are always everywhere in the pictures I have.





PoetiKonstellation Thoughts:



This is a haibun poem. This is the first time PoetiKonstellation writes something like this. The deadline is limited and the task is very complex. However, if the reader likes this writing, that’s good news for PoetiKonstellation, because she feels like a newborn baby trying to write something like this. Thank you for the support of this page and for the likes! Honestly, PoetiKonstellation didn’t experience much emotion, because it’s not the poetry style that she likes, nevertheless, it was a good experience trying to write something that used to be mysterious before, though. This text describes an imaginary journey to a tree that is unique and beautiful; the narrator describes her relationship with loneliness and the tree, and then loneliness again. Today, quarantine united us with our loneliness, books, snacks, etc. But here, PoetiKonstellation remembers how surprised she was to find a hidden place with a unique tree, and how tall and gorgeous it was … This is just a PoetiKonstellation fantasy. Magnificent Reader, what is your favorite place? Do you have fantasies of places that do not even exist on this planet? What are they? Love, beauty and peace!
