The star-flecked sky, no
Moon to eclipse their presence
Stars having a ball

Solace – What Do You See # 231
Don't argue with her
When she is in a bad mood
Even if you'r right
But don't worry my friend
She will double the reward
Once she realizes her fault
Friends
Two dear friends
sat on a cushion
to avoid the wall
they promised never to fight
and never have a fall
all the jealous onlookers
and
all the backbiters
couldn't pull away
Two friends apart
Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Resplendent
The resplendent view
Invigorates the senses
Wake up and enjoy
Nature is with you if you care
Life is short
Why waste on
trivialities
Fire In and Around- Reena’s Xploration Challenge # 323
Fire In and Around
They come in all shapes and sizes
yet in childhood
they all look same
nurtured with thoughts
their communities allow
but some of them are
blessed with
a persistent fire in and around
an undying thurst for knowledge
if they don't give in to peer pressure
if they keep balance
don't allow their rational thinking
overshadowed by
radical thinking
not let themself or others
turn to ashes
by the fire of bigotry
they are bound to excell in every field
And
looked upon as
the dependable pillars of
a well functioning
prosporous, and
healthy nation
Curiosity Is Rewarding- Reena’s Xploration Challenge # 322
We have a quote to fire your imagination this week.
“I think if you are curious, you create opportunities, and then if you open the doors, you create possibilities.”
– Mario Testino
Curiosity Is Rewarding
School teachers said,
'Ask questions'
Our Religious heads said,
'Never raise doubts.
Believe what we say blindly.'
People were confused
Wondering what to believe
They lost their freedom
Became slave
of the
ongoing traditions and beliefs
The best gift of life
unopened
Opportunities were lost
Possibilities died
Enlightened said
"If you are curious,
you create opportunities, and then if you open the doors, you create possibilities.”
Thousands salute to
Those who believed the enlightened ones
and dared
Despite
Suffering
Atrocities of
Society, and
Religion leaders
They didn't stop
until they found the right answers to their questions
Their persistence paid off
The world is now appreciating them
For their achievements
Generosity- What Do You See # 229
Give a little happiness

For the person serving you
Generosity blesses both
The giver and receiver

Women – What Do You See # March 4, 2024
Women
When each woman takes the charge
to support and empower at least one woman
When women celebrate womanhood and honor
the incredible women in our lives
Who have helped others to reach their full potential
Then they will succeed to
Create a world
Where gender equality is a reality
Such women's achievements and sacrifices deserve recognition and appreciation, not just on International Women's Day but every day.
