From India, with love 💟
The best start to a morning, ☀️
Is a giant mug of coffee ☕
And a wide smile 😊
In the comments section below, write a 13 WORD STORY based on the illustration.
We walk on a tightrope our whole lives. When it comes to everything: not too much, not too little. We find our center or fall off.
And that's why no one's perfect. People carry things on their shoulders every day, and the best of us can balance them well, but no one balances everything perfectly.
Come and spend some time with me.
What I reveal in depth, I hide in simplicity.
Do not be so horrified by the shapeless clothes my body has donned.
They will mold to your beliefs accordingly.
My mosque holds no grudges,
and my God holds no anger.
What you think to be hate-speech, is in reality, spread by hate-mongers.
Do not be fooled by their luscious lips and intellectual conversations,
Each one has a motive and a cause for discrimination.
I would tell you much more,
But you would need to sit and listen,
So come and spend some time with me,
I'll show you a lifetime worth of visions.
Do not be so afraid, do not be so suspicious
To understand my shapeless body, you must lay d...

Take off: A short poem
------------------------
I always wondered about magic,
Of powers that could make me FLY.
But as I grew and faced the tragic,
I became grounded and began to cry.
As naive I had many WISHES
I prayed all to be true
with my HAND FOLDED innocently
I hoped to make it through
I was in torment facing the falsity
I realized this isn't a FAIRYTALE
If I do not tussle with myself
Then I would patently fail.
Today I am clever enough to evince,
my dear older self to remember.
PATIENCE will always be salient,
Whatever happens, just don't surrender.
I'm learning from my fallacy, ...

Drop: A short poem

It say things that only you can understand.
It has all you didn't expect it would withstand.
Whilst inside its a mighty ocean.
But we see what comes out, is just...
So heavy,
A drop !

Reverse Gear: A short poem
----------------------
Driving in a full speed
I was at my peak
This halt is bothering me
Making me so weak
I took steps long back
Gear after gear
I had gained the momentum
Year after year
What if I could or couldn't
Fear gripping my faith
Procastinating hard work
Thinking that would be waste
I should have foreseen
Brakes wanting me to curse
Realising I've taken a wrong turn
I so wanted to reverse.
But here I am
Being puzzled this way
Fear of collision is scary
Shall I just head away?
Putting my life upside down
Knowing I have something to lose
But I have a lot to gain
It's just about trying again
Slowly I started pushing back
Carefull...

INCOMPLETE
Trees without leaves,
Streams without water,
Skies without stars,
Me if I'm not yours.

The idea that women are inferior to men is absurd. When a man is born of a woman, how can he be superior and she inferior?
"The story of women's struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights."
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
Engage Prompt - Magic Pen
If one pen could undo,
The wages of the orginal sin,
Earned by Adam and Eve in Eden,
Why not rewrite the beginning?

BROKEN WINGS
Birds with broken wings,
Don't fly the same skies again.

All of Me : A Poetry
------------------------
They say I shine so bright
Why do I shed that light?
May be coz I'm so pure
Nothing's dark, I'm all white
White isn't my skin
But it is my soul
For I don't breathe fire
Still I ain't so cold
I see green even in red
Coz my wisdom seeks yellow
My eyes are hypnotic
And my nature is mellow
Purple is my wound
It hurts so much
When everyone ignores it
And treat me as such
I'm so RAVENOUS
I've haven't eaten for a while
As they served only hatred
And Love is all I liked
May they see my true colour
Coz I am what they seek
I will give them all they want
Not because I'm so ...
