Anthology of Short Poems in the COVID Era

includes 5 silent lotus poems


Here you will meet poets who took refuge in the sanctuary of their homes away from the unseen enemy. They thought about their loved ones as they read horrible news. Prayed for parents, children, friends they were separated from, quarantined or under ventilators. They wrote of their hopes and dreams in poems while passing through the Lockdown nightmare era of COVID without losing sight of the return journey to the Sun. This anthology of 26 poets from the USA, Canada, Australia, and the UK is the selection made by the editors from the more than 150 inkwells who so graciously answered the call for submissions.

profits go to The Mahak Society to Support Children with Cancer

Congratulations on getting your poems into an anthology. That is quite an accomplishment.

I order from Amazon every month, and I may buy it.

Did they reproduce your poem on the back correctly? It seems to me it would make more sense if the word "with" was "of".
Signature info:
If you don't like the black theme, it is easy to switch to a lighter color. Just ask me how.
If I don't critique your poem, it is probably because I don't understand it.

I understand it now. "with" is correct.
