Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #186 & Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Celebration

hello
    fellow 
       bibliophile

what is your recommendation
what is the latest you've read
perhaps i would like it too

books are always a cause for celebration
more stimuli for our fantasies
more reflection in our souls

and i get to add another ten 
     to the twenty 
         already on my side table

The Font of nature #poetic script

The font of nature … poetic script …. by judeitakali

judeitakali's avatarTales Told Different

LORA:This world has taken you my love. The oceans dissolve our intimacy, and vast new lands seek to replace me!

PAUL: Weep not my beauty, lest your heart falters. The stars here may not align with those at home; but I plot them all the same– as we did our parting night. Constellations forged by our love.

The Font of nature
Written in the darkest skies
My way back to you

LORA:Leave me be my truest, forget me! For memory aches and my heart quakes; your absence pounding and ripping at its seams!

PAUL:Think not that, I beseech you my blossom. For each day I limp the tunnels of time; and they are not dark, for they grow lush with this love we have nurtured.

The Font of nature
Rewarding a Gardener's hands
Blooms of commitment

LORA:Where be thou these lonely nights?…

Life grows

Life grows ….by Aishwarya

kittysverses's avatarKitty's Verses

P.C :- Glenn A. Buttkus’s (SOUTH SOUND MINIMALIST PHOTOS); dVerse

Life finds itself to grow without any interference, without any help,

A creeper finds its hold amongst many trees and shrubs around,

Trees laden with fruits grow into trees again,

I am not languishing,

I am dormant,

If not eaten by a squirrel, pigeon, sparrow or man,

I shall grow into a plant again,

Till such time,

My fruits in lap of nature,

A part of creation, as special as creation itself,

I am not languishing, I am dormant.

Green Tomato Plant:

“Juicy tomatoes thrive in the Northwest, first as green goblins, then as love fruit.” (Glenn A. Buttkus)

Style Tuesday – Step out for Revenge Shopping

Empowered Women's avatarEmpowered Women

Economies, both national and international await a wave of ‘revenge shopping’ to boost revenues.

People who have been ‘locked down’ for long are likely to hit shopping malls with a vengeance, and compensate for all that they have missed in the last 15 months.

I’ve lovingly and forlornly cleaned my bags and shoes every month, with a soft cloth, and put them away again. Shoes are longing to see action, to take you places and breathe in fresh air.

I bought a new pair of shoes, yesterday, and surreptitiously, stacked them away in the shoe closet, hoping not to be noticed by the man in my life. Not that silent look of askance again –Did you really need that ?

How many of you identify with this household scenario ?

Shoes step out of the car, before you do. Shoes are the first thing that are noticed for both…

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant ….. by Lady Lee

ladyleemanila's avatarLadyleemanila

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant

Not shimmering but limp

Hollow feeling without warning

Please don’t call me a wimp

One day I’ll wake up and meander

Act and never a bystander

One day I’ll wake

One day I’ll wake

Flourish and lace with my candour

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant

All things transpire, I’m blue

Some sweet carress in the morning

Of course, with coffee brew

Stow away the hurt and pain

And with that, no need to explain

Stow away

Stow away

I’ll be up and as bright as rain

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant

Just having a breather

Just wait for one day life’s soaring

And of course a pleasure

Be patient and we’re rewarded

Problems and hindrances sorted

Be patient

Be patient

Garden full of rose and orchid*

Reena is the host of Reena’s Xploration Challenge

Well, I’m back, guys…

Without too much of ado, let’s get straight to the prompt.

PROMPT #185 (Sentence prompt)

I’m not languishing, I’m dormant

Find a way to use this in your piece – prose, poetry, fiction, essay, anecdote, memoir, diary page or anything else that you can invent.

♾♾♾

I’m not languishing 

I am dormant


I am waiting for my time to
emerge

Till then I conserve my energy




Why waste my talent on the unappreciative


My time hasn’t arrived as yet
So I’ll wait

I wait till the circumstances are just perfect


Then I will bloom


And then the world will be held spellbound
