Earth- Weekly Photo Challenge

Earth- Weekly Photo Challenge–  Earth Day is near! This week, let’s celebrate this planet on which we live.

“Our planet Earth has its own day of celebration: April 22nd.  In 1970, Senator Gaylord Nelson founded Earth Day.  Now celebrated around the world, it’s a day when we pause to think about the environment.”

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

~Indira
