Reflections on A to Z 2016 - Let the Soul Pour

30 days - 2 blogs a day – 52 blogs altogether in a month- exhausted right!

True, it was lot of writing and sometimes you feel its pressure. But with it comes lot of insights as you surf and search. And that’s what a writer enjoys. His grey matter just needs more and more facts and feelings so that he can widen his outlook and reflect. And I gained that.

This was my second year so I went ahead to write two posts a day in two different genre – one prose with subject – festivals of India and the second – poetry – tender and soulful. the experience with both of them were different.

A bit of lagging at times but at last all accomplished on 30th April. That was great. So, at the end I would say I enjoyed this.

Talking about the poetry blog , I would like to mention that poetry for me needs a perfection. So I had a haunch at times that was writing a poetry every day affecting the quality. So I started giving more time to it - at times even the whole night. But at the end I thought I did justice. And best part was going through the poetry by some fellow bloggers.



So here goes the list: -- Poetry – let the soul pour


            
        A for Adore
             
       B for Beauty Surreal
             
           J for Journey to Life
 
K fo Kiss

Now, looking forward to next year with more varied themes and participation, in the meantime you all go through these and do put your comments. I’ll also relax and go through the posts by other participant bloggers.

Note : Shape Poetry is one in which the poetry takes the subject of the poetry. This makes it one of the most inventive form. Therefore, if the subject of your poem were of a flower, then the poem would be shaped like a flower. If it were of a fish, then the poem would take on the shape of a fish. ><<<*>

That’s for today with Z . And thus comes the end of the Challenge. Some ups & Downs but still completed all words on time.

Y for You and Me - A Sedoka Poetry





The Katauta is an unrhymed Japanese form consisting of 17 or 19 syllables. The poem is a three-lined poem the following syllable counts: 5/7/5 or 5/7/7.
The Katauta form was used for poems addressed to a lover. A single katauta is considered incomplete or a half-poem, however, a pair of Katauta using the syllable count of 5,7,7 is called a sedoka.



O dear, partner sweet,
Far from world, your heart I live,
Embraced, blissed in safe abode.

With my love chaste, clean,
I nurture, treat, splurge, refresh,
Your heart pure my heaven safe.

Shining tiny bells
Stars on conical green tree
Jesus born, merry all round.
