Writing 101- Future
Writing 101- Last assignment Future
This time journey was wonderful as I completed all the assignment for Writing 101, almost on time. Once or twice I faltered but managed to complete them.
I made more friend and more followers. I also followed them and learned writing tips from them. What a wonderful lot. Always encouraging and taking time out of their busy schedule to give positive comments.
I love you friends.
Thanks to #Michelle, Cheri, Ben and Word Press team for giving us nice assignments.
I don’t know what to write about the future. I always live life day-to-day as at this age everyone does not knowing when the party will be over.
Uncertain is life
Future is unpredictable
We plan and God laughs
Life is like a tree.
Quality of fruits and flowers depends on how you have nurtured it.
I’ll be waiting for the future assignment as I can’t write without a push or a prompt and meanwhile publish my photography challenges and try to take part in short fiction stories.
When the past is past
For future you are tense
To live in the present
Makes a good sense
Writing 101, Day 17- Mine your own material.
Writing 101, Day 17- Mine your own material.
When I had just joined Word Press, I wanted to do many things at a time. Writing short poems in Hindi and English, photography, short stories etc. I stumbled upon Haiku, Haynaku and Haibun and tried my hand on that also. But I had no courage to publish them . This assignment has given me a nice chance mine my old material.
Seasons come and go
According to their cycle
Relish with fervor

Seasons come and go
According to their cycle
Our mood swings with them
Haynaku
Time
never wasted
teaches you something
Something
to learn
from your failures
Failures
to gain
Success next time

Haibun
“Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.” Rumi I’m walking on the water, on the sea waves, they engulf me, embrace me, caress me, they are cooling, soothing, taking away all the worries from my mind I need sea. Its vastness , calmness, serenity empowers me. Does it needs me too? How I’m to know? They say, sea never takes anything from anyone, it returns everything. Is it unconditional love from its side. Make me feel wanted, take me. bonded forever argument unresolved are we soul mates.

Writing 201: Water
Writing 201: Water– Today, let’s write a poem about water. And/or a haiku. And/or use a simile.
Droplets of water
Scattered on the lotus leaves
Shimmer like pearls
sad, depressed, heart-broken
I take a dip in the sea
calm, cool, soothing water
tastes like my tears
waves caressing
wash traces of tears
whisper in my ear
don’t break down or bow out
be like us
floating on the surface
gathering courage and
hitting hard on the shore
Friendship
Somewhere in life
There must be someone
To take your hand
And share the torrid day.
Without the touch of friendship
There is no life, and we must fade away.
– RUSKIN BOND
Source- Healing into Wholeness
My take on friends and friendship
What are friends there for ?
If not for
Care, concern and adulation
For being comfortable
In silence and communication
For supporting each other
In every difficult situation
For helping each other
Without humiliation
For accepting each other
Without any discrimination.

Some Haiku(s)
1- Friendship can unite
Different species together
Miraculous bond
2- True friend and friendship
Most rare and valuable gift
Treasure it with care
3- Love, trust, compassion
Synonymous with friendship
True friends are a bliss
4- If all religions
Shed their animosity
Friendliness survives
5- Who cares for color
When bond of love is strong
Friendship matters more
Size does not matter
Caste and creed may be different
Friendship cares for none
Friends! What’s your take on friendship, share with me .
Haiku- Full Moon
Full moon in the sky
With magnetic attraction
Makes waves dance with joy
