Thoughts

Devereaux Frazier and Beth Amanda are currently hosting the Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge which was started by our star writer Christine Ray. We hope to offer all of you something that will spark your creativity and willingness to participate.

The prompts are designed to be quick challenges that can be written in 10 to 15minutes,  inspire you creatively, are fun, and get everyone interacting.  Please post your response to the prompt in the comments below and show your fellow posters some love and support.  All members of the Go Dog Go community, including Baristas, are welcome to participate.  Feel free to share this post on your own blogs and/or Facebook.

Today’s prompt:

Here are 3 words to spark your imagination for a piece of poetry.  BUT, you CANNOT USE these 3 words in the poem.  What images, feelings, emotions do they conjure up for you?  Good luck!

gray, wind…

Life beckons an awakening.
A lucky consciousness arrives.

The clan stakes a claim.
It begins again.

Walk, talk, survive.
Try to thrive.

Fun, work, and responsibilities.
It’s about balance, or not.

What do you choose?

Deeds in memories questioned.
Achievements and greatness or pain and defeat?

What do you leave behind?

SHOOTING THE BREEZE

Who was it
Installed the installer?
And as for the uninstaller;
Who will uninstall the uninstaller?
Look here, there and everywhere.

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 61

“In the immensity of consciousness, a light appears — a tiny point which moves rapidly and traces shapes, thoughts, and feelings, like a pen writing on paper. And the ink which leaves a trace is memory. You are that tiny point and by your movement the world is ever re-created.”

– Sri Nisargadatta, I Am That

In the immensity of consciousness, a light appears — a tiny point which moves rapidly and traces shapes, thoughts, and feelings, like a pen writing on paper. And the ink which leaves a trace is the memory. You are that tiny point and by your movement, the world is ever re-created.

 Sri Nisargadatta, I Am That

Alas!

It eludes me

the immensity of consciousness

again and again

could have

lead me

to a higher plane

Alas!

I am

where I was

when I was born

yearning for my mother’s embrace

now at the end of my journey

yearning for my mother’s embrace

my existence

in between

is a cipher

तुम कर रहे थे मुर्रव्व्त
हम सोच बैठे मुहब्बत

गलती किसकी है।१।

सोचते हैं भूल जाएँ तुम्हें
पर इस दिल के आगे

चलती किसकी है।२।

सो गया है जहाँ सारा
तेरी यादों में तन्हा रात

जलती किसकी है।३।

ढून्ढ लेते मीत नया पर
दुनिया में सूरत तुझसे

मिलती किसकी है।४।

मायूसी के आलम में
दिल में उम्मीद अमित

पलती किसकी है।५।
