Dear Readers and Contributors,

 

I would like to take the opportunity to personally thank you all for the continuous love and support, especially through the pandemic. In just under 6 months, we’ve come so far; the magazine has been featured on Publish YOUth Writing and Poets & Writers, and the editorial team reached a whooping milestone of 100+ Advice Articles written! As we continue grow our global outreach, we’ve published over 280 creators from 25 U.S. States, 25 countries, and 6 continents across the world! 

 

It’s been a pleasure growing this community over the past three years, so I know I speak for the entire editorial board when I say we hold this magazine and our contributors close to our hearts. It takes a tremendous amount of research and effort to manage the magazine, which is why we're so thankful for all of your support. We encourage you to share our publications and Advice Articles to help our other young creators who may be interested in pursuing their craft.

 

Cheers,

Lori Khadse

Editors' Choice Works

 

Haikus on Nature and Life

Written by R.L.

 

 

Wind
whispering to me
The wind carries away worries
Wind must be magic

 


Leaves
growing thick and green
capturing the rays of sun
in fall, you must go

 


My Cat
My cat is stupid
He can’t talk or drive a car
He is so useless

 


Rainbows are duds
I want some treasure
Looking next to the rainbow,
I find no treasure

 


Good for nothin’
Tables are rip-offs
and chairs are overrated
Why do we buy these?

 


The One And Only Me

I am so special
And there is only one me
The one and only

 


Good bye
It always bites hard,
and lasts for eternity
Goodbyes are touching

 

 

 

 

R.L. is an 18-year-old writer from Sri Lanka.
