Day 13 Prompt: Sharp Revisited, adapted an earlier piece of writing: Ambushed by shrapnel words searing the soul piercing, lacerating vitriolic volley bloodless wounds never to heal Invisible scars Silent screams Unshed tears ©Ardra Vamshi #thealiporepostpoetrymonth @thealiporepost #napowrimo2024
Belated #napowrimo2024 day 22 Nayyirah Waheed has this perfect poem in "Lands" that goes "My/mother/was/my first country./the first place I ever lived." Thinking about that today. Wanted to write something lovely to celebrate the mothering force in all of us. Instead I am feeling the full force of my estrangement. It's ok. Some years are like this. Some are easier. I accept and do the work to handle this consequence, as it means most other days I live with an ease I once thought impossible. To the exiles: may you find peace in the home of your own body. #napowrimo2024 #poetryisnotdead #poetsofinstagram
Is the beauty of realism a facet of truth or the prescribed norm of society? The beauty of the strides reckons itself like the clock work's step I drown in the notions of the catered truth that draws it caution in every breath, I jolter onto the commotions of the callous timelines that stall existence to its death. Dreams of the eloquent summer night with liberation in its tone saunter the core of me, Attuned to the cacophonies of passion and radiance, I trace the trail of all the light we cannot see. The symbolism of gallant victories often draws association with the recurring footsteps of time, To be worthy in your mortal bane, you ought to tread carefully over the deemed benchmarks of the line. Creation in its essence, stares at the depths of the art that the creator fosters in their craft, Be where your feet at, the benevolence of stillness nurtures the heart. Arterial constellations in their agony still cannot fathom the human rage, The stellar of one’s stride is reckoned by the obedience to societal demands with their age The collective clock that determines one’s path falters the existence of thee, In the precipice of who I am, I dive into the depths of who I want to be. Unfathomable and untamed, I trod down the unconventionality of my fate, Embracing the delusion of my unconquerable prowess, I dive into the unknown unafraid. The beauty of realism is the counterfeited conception that society deems to be true, To confine your wings, to leash the fire that enrages the pursuit of your dreams under its sinew. I hope you find the courage to foster a narrative that forges to be your own, In the truth of your purpose, you walk yourself to your home. A home where your fondest dreams and burning passions come alive I hope you find an abode in yourself as you walk by in this strife. -Hridya.

NaPoWriMo - Day 24 ✨ “why didn’t anyone tell me” __________________________ many thoughts are being thunk but all i wish to say is i am elated that i took this challenge and managed to make it till here despite a few hurdles, if not many. it was a great practice and an overall incredible experience to be able to pen down my thoughts on a given prompt, read my friends’ unique takes on the same and have a little session on our often-wildly-different-yet-somehow-similar approaches, trying to find a pattern within it. so, as i write for the last time in napowrimo ’24, i would like to thank anyone (esp. tanie and noor ofc) who read or even skimmed through a poem of mine, let alone like or criticise. thank you for your time here. i hope that all of us find our voice, today or beyond. have a wonderful day! <3 – tara. 🤎 ____________________________ • #napowrimo #nationalpoetrymonth #globalpoetrycommunity #glopowrimo #letsescapril #escapril #napowrimo2024 #poetry #poemoftheday #poemsociety #poetryisnotdead #poetryislife #englishpoetry #poetrygram #poetryofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poems #writeup #writingcommunity #instagram #instagood •
NaPoWriMo - Day 24 ✨ “why didn’t anyone tell me” __________________________ Life update: Here we come to an end to this challenge. Even tho we completed writing this last prompt in due time, we were a bit occupied with life to come and post. At the end, it was meant as a fun little challenge to explore our ownself and i think i would say we completed it 🫶🏻 This was an amazing experience. I got to go out of my comfort zone, out of style of writing and bring out better outputs. I also got more and more insights in writing with my own trial and errors and also learning from my tara and noor. Overall I'm really satisfied with how this turned out. I might continue such challenges personally, maybe even post it who knows ;) Until then, write and be happy 🦫 – tanie. 🤍 ____________________________ • #napowrimo #nationalpoetrymonth #globalpoetrycommunity #glopowrimo #letsescapril #escapril #napowrimo2024 #poetry #poemoftheday #poemsociety #poetryisnotdead #poetryislife #englishpoetry #poetrygram #poetryofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poems #writeup #writingcommunity #instagram #instagood •
Title: Blade of Silence The grief of losing them isn't the only loss to mourn For they chose to mold me as if I were clay and they, a sinister sculptor; and I let them, as I screamed under the veil. Lost the courage to look flawed, in the eyes of my beholder Each cut was made, only to serve their stare and I let them, for I dreamed of that day far away, where I would be perfect for them to stay. But their blade didn't hurt as it cut through my skin, It was what followed: the silence of my deafening scream, that was stifled even by me. Frozen and afraid, under their penetrating gaze. They couldn't find me, so they turned me into an enemy, worth disgrace Stood afar and watched, their perfect spectacle, turned into a mere debacle, which they set ablaze. My silence bled through, as I burned and decayed. - N.S.

Belated #napowrimo day 21 for me. Definitely missing the community aspect to this project now that we're so far into May and no one is posting daily prompts or sharing their work/successes/challenges anymore. Still trucking along though! Three weeks in. Just nine more days to go. ✌🏻 #napowrimo2024 #poetsofinstagram #poetrycommunity
Day 12 Prompt: Food Memory I have wondered why are food memories always about the drooling, slurping and the burp of fulfillment It is all about singing peans around Flavours swirling from the kitchen stoking whorls of Wistful nostalgia Why does nobody talk about "The Great Indian Kitchen" Where life revolves only around Planning, cooking, serving and clearing meals Where one sought Validation, Approval and Deliverance in Kitchen exploits Of whipping up dishes And revel in the glory of serving tirelessly What about the non stop peeling, chopping, cutting, grating and the grinding Why is it never about the sweating in gallons or never about the spills, the leftovers, the clearing and the cleaning or about appetite that has gone into hiding When the aroma has turned to stench And flavour has become rancid And all one wants to do is Flop on the bed until the next meal Surely there is no magic wand that whips up the spread on the table... But thankfully these are all distant memories Food is now about choice, convenience, relaxation, comfort No hustle, bustle or anxiety No aspiration for appreciation in culinary excellence Moderate enthusiasm for Domestic pursuits Is finally a thing now - Phew... ©Ardra Vamshi #thealiporepostpoetrymonth @thealiporepost #napowrimo2024 #thegreatindiankitchen #cookingrhapsodies #cookingpanegyric #foodnirvana #deliverance #speaktheunspeakable #bittertruth (p.s: misread Day 12 Prompt as 'Fond Memory'- started working on it...then realised the prompt was 'Food Memory'- 😖🤭🤫🤐🙈🙉🙊)

Prompt- Parting Letter To April by @poemsindia #poemsindianapowrimo2024 As April has ended and we're halfway through May already, this Haiku is one of the initial attempts at capturing the spirit of what a parting letter to April may hold for me. ⁉️Did you know ⁉️ Haikus are unrhymed poetry that originally developed in Japan. It consists of 3 lines and 17 syllables following the 5-7-5 syllable count in each line, respectively. However, the widespread likeness for nature as it's choice of theme and brevity that Haiku focuses upon has led to numerous variations in its style of writing with the general meter remaining almost the same. Let's try creating Haikus in the comments below! . . . Picture Credit: @nirabhrapandey The background showcases the mesmerizing Cherry blossoms or Sakura in the cultural city of Kyoto in Japan. #napowrimo2024 #springpoetry #haiku #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #writing #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #haikusofinstagram #haikupoetry #napowrimoprompts

prompt 17 is about centering myself as the past, present and future. i am all versions of me - idea, conception, flesh, dust and fodder. it takes on the idea that i am never truly destroyed because i become nutrition for the next children of the earth while still feeling like the 5 year old i was. i live indefinitely. #escapril @letsescapril #escapril2024 #napowrimo #napowrimo2024
Day 11 Prompt : You and I Looking for stories of You and I In Us A bit of me here and A bit of you there But the whole of us Scattered around like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle with some pieces missing We could keep looking and looking Until the edges get frayed Until it dawns on Us That the You I seek And the Me You seek Is just an idea That resides in You and Me When it dawns on us that the pieces could still fit in comfortably The picture could still be complete because we are beyond the Idea of You and I...

Isomer, index poem #amykaypoemaday24 This is from April for #napowrimo2024 but needed to be re-posted for small and illegible font. The idea is to write a concept in the form of a "poetic index." This caused reflection of grief of a lost past love. Death, be not proud. Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. #poemaday #prompt #poem #originalpoem #poetry #originalpoetry #poetrycommunity #indexpoetry #writer #wisconsinwriters #wi #writersofinstagram #poemsofig #poetsofinstagram #igpoets #words #loss #grief #writing #poet #life #love #spiritual #spiritualjourney #journal #poetryforthesoul #healingjourney

Overthinking always plonks us into a negative spiral and makes us believe the worst of any scenario. It robs us of the joy of being in the present moment. If you are someone who actively struggles with overthinking and ruminating, here are some powerful affirmations that can help you put yourself at ease and be grounded in the present moment. 1) I am not my thoughts. My thoughts don't represent my reality; I am in control of my thoughts. 2) I have the power and discipline to choose where I pour my attention and what I choose to do. 3)I am safe, and nothing bad will happen to me . 4) Everything works in my best interest. 5) The universe always has my back. 6) Instead of stressing, I am going to trust in the divine timing and know all I want is on its way to me. 7) I am enough; I only exist and focus on the present moment. 8) I am above all of the negative thoughts, and I am abundantly filled with positivity. 9) I am at peace with all that has happened and all that will happen. Which one of these do you find the most helpful?

And here’s the final poem for #napowrimo2024 ✨ Inspired by lessons from summer romances around me and George Bernard Shaw’s quote. I do think there’s a lot more conversation than necessary about green flags and red flags and who should pay on the first date and attachment styles and what not then there is just focus on basic actions. Over time intentions are revealed — and if someone is giving you so much त्रास right from the beginning then I mean what even is going on and why? #napwrimo #escapril #bernardshaw #lovepoem #modernlove #whatislove #writerscommunity #writersonlove

Day 8 Prompt : A funny love poem Hmmm and an old Malayalam film song flashed into my mind- I did not think further. It is about an impending wedding between the crow and the cat- implies an improbable or absurd scenario – usually used humorously or sarcastically to express disbelief or impracticality of a situation. It is from the Malayalam Movie “Pakalkkinaavu” (1966) Music: BA Chidambaranadh Lyrics: P Bhaskaran Singer: KJ Yesudas- picturised on Late Sathyan Maash and a little girl- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67KLpA41dos : I definitely had a blast translating this! Hope that it qualifies for a funny Love poem: 🤭☺️ Wedding Bells are ringing For the Crow and the Cat It is Celebration time in the Woods Basking in the gentle sunshine The coy crow bride blushes The cuckoo plays the flute And the peacock ululates The Sun has the shamiana up The Shade has drawn the rugs The Forest Spring sprinkles the rose water And the Honey bird serves the pudding The parrot chews on the betel leaves As the gentle breeze loiters around The best man is the Red mongoose While the Bridesmaid is the Mountain squirrel As Simian pa holds the groom’s hand… Fox daddy gives away the bride Wedding Bells are ringing It is celebration time in the Woods ©Ardra Vamshi #thealiporepostpoetrymonth @thealiporepost #napowrimo2024 The original lyrics in Malayalam: Kakkakkum poochakkum kalyanam....... kattil muzhukke ponnonam..... sundarikkakkaku punnaram...... ponnilam veyilathu kalyaanam... kuzhaluvilikkaan kuyilanu...... kuravamuzhakkaan mayilanu..... panthalorukkaan veyilaanu.... paayavirichathu nizhalanu... panineeru thalichathu kattaruvi...... payasam vechathu then kuruvi.... vettila murukkunnu thathamma.... chuttinadakkunnu poonthennal..... cherukkante thozhan chenkeeri...... penninte thozhi malayannan.......... kayyupidichathu kurangngachan...... pennu koduthath kurukkachan........(kakkakkum poochakkum...........(2)

Summer is for pretending that I do not want the ‘aam ki guthli’ because I know that mango is your favourite fruit despite your constant complaints about the calories. Summer is for lying under the fan running on full-speed in nothing but tank tops with our feet touching, talking, giggling and kissing for hours. Summer is for slurping ice golas & baring our colourful teeth and inner children , baring our souls. Summer is for listening to stories about you plucking guavas from your nani’s orchard during May holidays as a child, For two spoons in one ice cream tub, For giving each other coconut oil champis before we wash our hair. Summer is for staying inside our air-conditioned car for an extra minute under the excuse of beating the heat when all we want is to hold each other's hand for sixty more seconds, Summer is for you lending me your sunscreen and me lending you my heart. Summer is for bringing you flowers and tucking them in your hair, Summer for making lemonade with extra sugar together in the kitchen under the guise of wanting a chilled drink when we just want to share giggles and one glass. Summer is for your mango flavoured kisses and when you tie your hair up in a messy bun, for me to tuck behind your hair. ~Avni 'summer is for falling in love' by @poemsindia #napowrimo #poemsindia #poemsindianapowrimo #napowrimo2024 #poemoftheday #summerpoem #writerscommunity #writersnetwork #writersofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #poetry #thepenwielders

// The sun // Sun When I call you my sun, I don’t mean the April sun- Where you’ve to squint your eyes And wait till dawn To talk to it. Where every inch of my skin Tingles in disguised blaze. When I call you my sun, I mean the December sun- Peeking through my Not-so-blue skies. When leaves forgot to swing Birds forgot to sing. Birthdays smelt like funerals. And every laugher echoed back as Weeps- But Eversince I had your sunshine bouncing at me- I feel the warmth of merriment hugging my skin. -Ihina // The moon // Moon When I call you my moon I never asked for the blue shade Our story was meant to be sung by the sun of a warm spring day. In that moment of our life we were two petals of a dying flower slowly, calmly, becoming one In a hope to bloom one more time. I closely held you in a hope that the pieces of our love will be glued together by the tears of my wounded heart. If you would have only stayed in my arms we would have found the essence of forever. The blue shade is adorable, but, When I call you my moon I mean white shade half hidden behind those white clouds in an empty sky sharing my sleepless nights, comforting me in my worst nightmares, drying away my endless tears, making me drown in fairytale dreams, talking with me to take away those burdened feelings, singing me a life where I could also sleep without shivering in fear. - boynextttdoor ________________________________________ This post is in collaboration with Ihina ( @poopy_acc_of_ihu ) Original work by @boynextttdoor and @poopy_acc_of_ihu . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #poets #romantic #happiestperson #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #quote #quoteoftheday #lovequotes #couplequotes #writerscorner #trending #love #deep #quotes #newyear #writer #napowrimo #napowrimo2024
