Reena's Exploration Challenge #135 Exploration Challenge #134 brought in interesting perspectives for me. Reading about cosiness of a home made me question my own mental alignment.

"How is watching different from seeing or looking?" "Well, the language is slimy, but I guess it has something to do with being alert …. Seeing and looking are comparatively passive activities." "So, it is somehow tied to getting a desired result in a time-bound manner?" "Er…. Maybe." He flung the expensive wrist-watch at me, … Continue reading Shackled
It was fun to pose as a frog prince, and let all the young girls kiss me. But then.... I did not turn into a prince. The girls were furious at being tricked, and threw me into the nearest well. I've been unable to jump out despite all efforts. Memories fade, and dreams change. The … Continue reading Frog in the Well

Sightings … by Aishwarya
Days, not so long ago,
Trip to the hills on the cards,
A hilltop cottage,
Promising sightings of wildlife,
Was earmarked,
Images of tigers, leopards on their night time prowl,
Waiting to be sighted by us conjured,
Us, equipped with torchlights,
With coffee mugs by the side,
Ready to sacrifice sleep and spot,
Alas! The mighty cats chose a different route that day,
It wasn’t our lucky night,
But, as the saying goes,
Patience always pays,
We weren’t to be disappointed by a herd of deers,
Who chose the early hours of dawn,
To pay a visit to the riverbank,
Our wildlife spotting wasn’t to go in vain,
If not for the mighty cats, the humble deers graced the occasion.
