 A tale of many a harried mom

trying in vain to tame her tot

terrible twos, at its peak

temper tantrums cry foul

raging frustrations

yearning for some

me time, to

 rest in

 peace.

I am sure many moms can relate to this one 🙂

A nonet for the above photo prompt!

(Nonet (9 – 8 – 7 – 6 – 5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1) progression downward of syllables)

Winds lull the sea , gentle demeanor

the beach drenched in an azure haze

slumbering in its blue robe

the slothful waves whispers

secret messages

embedded deep

 across the

 sands of

 time!

Happy Holi!

A Nonet for Holi!

(Nonet (9 – 8 – 7 – 6 – 5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1) progression downward of syllables)

holi

The spring ushers in festive spirits

 vibrant blooms sway to the zephyr

tangerine, crimson or blue

a riot of colors

forgetting their woes

all come alive

rejoicing

varied

hues!

Wishing all my blogger friends a very Happy Holi ❤ !

 

The world today….

In response to secretkeeper’s weekly writing  prompt #123.  The challenge is to use the 5 words below in a poem or fiction.  This is the first time I am trying a Nonet.

War and terror reign supreme today

barbarous acts tarnish life

books painted with violent blood

the sun stands a witness

to a shriveled world

consumed by hate,

I, me, mine

evicts

love!
