The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS July 25/2020

"Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “check/cheque/Czech.” Use one, use ’em all, use ’em any way you’d like." The words were caught in her throat, And the years of unutterable thoughts, They were crammed in every nook and cranny of her mind. She was a whisperer, But she was finally free, From…

Pages

Pages of life turn one by one, Torn and tattered with time, Folded with love umpteen times, Earmarked, Underlined, Telling a new tale. And some torn off in anguish, Scattered trails in wisps of time, Blown away by stormy tempests, But the lacuna remains, The tale incomplete. The recesses hold dried blossoms, That imprint memories…

Thursday photo prompt: Secret #writephoto

The silver key, Etched sublime, By Life's fine hand, A custodian to Life's cache, That is weathered, Seasoned by Time's travails. Shielding her inner self, From the stormy tempests, And wailing gales, For it would not unlock the door, That opened into the caverns of her heart. It hid the dazzling beauty inside, It shaded…

Thursday photo prompt: Lambent #writephoto

One day these dark clouds, These dark clouds that overcast my sky, My sky that is no longer blue. Blue overwhelms my soul, My soul yearns for the sunny warmth, Sunny warmth with its irridiscent hues, Hues that no longer colour my life. My life awaits the day, The day the sun will shine again.…

Life- story

A life, A story, You write some , Erase some. You wish to draw some, But gusts of stormy tempest, It blows the grains away. You look on. And you still draw, Small lines, Broken lines, Anonymous, Indistinct. Someday, Those lines would merge, An amalgam of all the broken ones, And a masterpiece borne. For…

A laugh lost

A slumber, Her Time now stood still, Dreams all doused. Untold fears, Dark shadows inside, Mirth shaded, Her salty tears danced, A laugh lost.

Play Of Time

You spend years of life, Years of life that go by, Years that you dreamt of, Years that you cherished with dreams of life. Years roll by, All in a silent cacophony, The nimble tread of time, You failed to hear it's chimes, It eavesdropped, It knew your secret desires. But the stealthy elf, It…

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS March 7/2020

"Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “figure.” Use the word “figure” any way you’d like." She refused to give up her light, No storm could bring her to her knees, For she was not as brittle as stone. She was a figure of flesh and blood, As deep as the ocean, As…

Unexpected Ways

Unexpected are the ways of life, It's brethren are known but unknown. You assume to forget, You walk to get lost in the life's maze. The travesty of life, It's turns and twists, Consume you, Overwhelm you. But a brave heart you are! You sleigh the unforseen demons, Surfing on the fortuitous furore, You reach…

A Bubble

She lived in a bubble, Caged in the glassy coccoon, She saw the outside world, In a pristine hue. The refracted truth, The sheathed life, The veiled truth, Life a lie! A frothy placebo, That showed what it wanted to tell, She floated in the pink panorama, Weaving an illusionary web. She was happy, She…
