"Reflections" - Learnings of Life



"Reflections" - Adi's A to Z Theme Reveal 2020



"Reflections"
                                - Learnings of Life

A to Z Challenge - writing  with alphabets A to Z - one each day -  is a real challenge. I have taken it twice in past. It was an enriching experience but an exhausting too. After a break of 3 yrs I'm back . This year I'll take four blogs a day.... different genre - different theme - different blog sites.
Crisp & Rhyming - the style that I love most -  the poetic  way .. what flows effortlessly. I'll take this as the style for this blog - I'll introspect and reveal - Right that's the theme - "REFLECTIONS" Learnings of Life, A poetic journey.  I am sure , you would love this. 

So now, stay with me - and this year enjoy the four blogs every day. A side from Reflections , there would be another poetry in HINDI. Aside from these there would be a food blog The Regional Cuisines of India & a fiction  Life just in 5 Sentences.

In the past as the challenge I wrote travelogue - all about Himachal Reflections from Adi - A to Z Challenge and made you travel throughout HP - the hill state of India. The next year I took two writings each day - One was my poetic journey Reflections on A to Z 2016 - Let the Soul Pour and the other was Festivals of India Reflections on A to Z 2016 - Festivals of India. 
So spare some time and tell me how I fared.

I am sure you would love this ... keep chipping in.

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.
