About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Electron --- for Prompt 4
by Joy Author IconMail Icon
Electron

Elementary, my dear,
the tiniest mass
inside a drama
negatively charged
like life itself.

Creation’s flair,
on paths uncertain, revolves
in passion compressed,
emitting minute flashes of light,
for the love of nucleus.

Compromising itself
in intensified poise,
with the spin of a miniature magnet,
clockwise or counterclockwise,
the electron is on tiptoes, whirling
in rapture through
the angular momentum’s trance.

Since the most brilliant feats
lie within the fate of the littlest,
the electron falls
to the charm of gravitation,
a lure too scandalously huge,
yet, oh, so delectable.
