Conversations with God

I’m dipping into Indian mythology for this prompt. Narad once asked God who was his greatest disciple. God pointed to a poor farmer.  Narad looked offended. The farmer did not visit temples or perform any meditation or rituals. He chose to remain silent, but his thoughts were read by the Almighty. God gave him a … Continue reading Conversations with God

The Hand that Holds the Brick Balloon

The hand that holds the brick balloon …. by Artie & Stu

If the hand that holds the string of the floating red brick balloon sees the hole where brick shows through the balloon then the hand will be crushed as the suspension of gravity bursts.

I have been battered

I have been chained

They say they worship me

But actually they want me tamed.

I can be gagged

I can be maimed

They say I am no one

But I refuse to be shamed.

My spirit is uncrushable

My will indomitable

I may be tethered

I will keep trying to rise again and again.

Like a broken heart
that builds a wall
for a new world
of days gone by
Like a mirage
in the desert
of tomorrows
a drop of hope
Like an oasis
where the soul
rests a moment
to remember you

When bubbles burst

When bubbles burst …..by Aishwarya

kittysverses's avatarKitty's Verses

P. C :- Reena’s Exploration Challenge

When bubbles burst far and tall,

T’was a time when friendship meant all,

At every beck and every call,

Now , was I the only one to remember them all?

Life overtook, was their line after all?

Maybe years later we may meet or never at all?

I tarry and wait for a call,

That’s not for now, if at all,

Pangs of friendship memories, swims over my mind after all,

Let me not worry now at all,

When bubbles burst far and tall.

Taking the Garbage Out

Taking the garbage out ….by Artie & Stu

artiecamenzind's avatarArtie & Stu


Looking so cool, dressed that way, living by their own rules, having all their own money enough for an estate, a luxury sailboat and coming to the town near me. Doesn’t look a business person. Too cool for that, please tell us how to save the world, did you think of that while above us all on your private jet plane or while rousing from a week long binge. They call it a hook for a reason, because its a trick and you’re really just a shill for the powers that are, selling rebellion and revolution by pound. As for art and being a musician, do you even know enough to remember that you’re not either.

For Reena’s Xploratory World (the challenge given to trash something that you have valued)

In Hope…

In hope ….by Radhika

radhikasreflection's avatarradhikasreflection

Entrenched in a veil of misunderstanding,

our relationship treads on a path of frailty.

Tremors of raucous feelings erupt

whorls of pain rives my soul.

I hold on to the scraps of buried memories

imprisoning the unsaid words, within the fortress of my heart.

I tether firmly to the cord holding us together,

hoping one day,

 the clamor of the incredulous mind clears.

Petals of integrity unfurls its magic

to rekindle the lost affinity, with a blossom of love!

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #192 – Regret

Regret ….. by Lady Lee

ladyleemanila's avatarLadyleemanila

The day has come for it to end
We thought it would keep till the grave
Like a loan we pay what was lend
No regret all the time we gave
Bad things we have done we forgave
Such a relief we are now free
We were not caught what was close shave
Please let me go and release me
It was special, you were my friend
Memories we shared and heat wave
Debt to pay, trust to give and fend
Poor me, it was like a shock wave
The thing was, I was like a slave
Clasp in the nectar like a bee
What was done was done, can’t be saved
Please let me go and release me
I still can not comprehend
Dissapointed and so depraved
I thought you were good and godsend
That in my heart you were engraved
I was wrong and everything’s waived
You were…
