• NaPoWriMo : Day 23- ‘Home’

  

   Today I’d like to challenge you to write a poem in the style of Kay Ryan, whose poems tend to be short and snappy – with a lot of rhyme and sound play. They also have a deceptive simplicity about them, like proverbs or aphorisms. Once you’ve read a few, you’ll see what I mean.…

• NaPoWriMo 2020: Day 12 – I moved on

  

  For today’s prompt (optional, as always), the challenge is to write a triolet. These eight-line poems involve repeating lines and a tight rhyme scheme. The repetitions and rhymes can lend themselves to humorous poems, as well as to poems expressing dramatic or sorrowful moods. And sometimes the repetitions can be used in deceptive ways, by splitting…

• Return to the Homeland – India Diaries – Part1

  

  The smells that once excited me had no effect; now that I knew this was where I was going to be staying, for sometime at-least. “Ma, we’re home.
