Tricks

Stormy grey skies,
Ink black waves,
Hugging me, 
Choking me,
Mouthful of briny water,
Arms lashing about,
Trying to keep myself afloat,
While looking around with hope.
A strange dream it was,
Last night.
When it was calm outside.
And the barn owl cooed softly,
As a mouse scurried along to hide.

Dancing in the Rain

The shadows shift rapidly, The Sun makes way for the dark clouds, Big, fat raindrops fall to the ground, Quenching the thirst of people all around. Water puddles as far as you can see, Frogs skipping away, The tiny green shoots peep with glee, While the Koyal in the tree is quiet today. The rains have their own charm, For humans, plants and animals alike. Bright green leaves dotted with sparkling drops, Waves in the sea dancing merrily, Birds ruffling their feathers, The soul of the Earth rejoices with every shower.

Read & Blog

I'm excited. Elated is the word actually. At 1AM in the morning. Hence, the need for this post at this odd hour. So, here's why. As you'll know (from my older post), I'm a new blogger on the block. Still discovering the new world & loving it.  In the past couple of days, I've discovered that I can link two of my passions- writing & reading together via my blog. There are some great review programs for new books, book challenges which you can set for yourself & other exciting stuff! I've applied to some & Oh!, I can't wait. So, the coming days will see some book reviews. I've already read 3 books this year, so have some backlog reviews too! Yay!
