My bouffant beauty






To celebrate my love for you, for your heart clutched in mine
I take a vow, each little you in me will remain conserved
I will be a memoir your beauty deserved
I will freeze all the moments
And frame all the happenstance touches

Heirloom of our love,
Your perfection and my Imperfection
The Monologue of our winks
The dance of our grins
Everything that my heart observed, everything that my eyes saw
Will remain etched in my soul

The Oodles of your laughter, near the willow
The reserve of your tears, on the pillow

Osmosis you were, Punk I was
Beauty you were, Nerd I was

Now I stand near the riverbed of your mirage
See you saturate and camouflage
In a butterfly

With Singed brows I look at the sky
To see you soar and transfuse into nature
Your core transparent, devoid of any humor, without any whimsy.

I tiptoed to reach you, you were not there,

My extended hands returned empty

Kingfisher



It took a flight,
Sun heat nesting in blue;
Only to hit the cage

Enigma



You are an enigma
I can’t wait to touch u;
Life within me

----------------

Deep blue eyes;
I jump in the riddle
Only to drown

----------------- 


She is unknown
He extends his hands;
Enigma solved

----------------

Enigma of rain
I stand with my arms open;
My soul is drenched 




Written for Haiku heights. Prompt: Enigma

Unveiling the themes for PADE

Photo A Day Experiment (PADE) was announced earlier and now it is time to introduce the themes for the month of July. I’m doing PADE in collaboration with Ritu KT, whom I introduced in my post earlier (Here)

Following is a list of 31 themes we will be covering in July. These themes are chosen from a pool of themes created by both of us.



We will be doing themes in the order 1 -31. You are welcome to do it with us and leave your post links in the linky tool below each post for the challenge starting 1st July.

We’ll announce the “Shutterbug of the day” everyday from the entries we receive through the linky tool each day. 


From those 31 Shutterbugs, we’ll select one “Ace Shutterbug” in the end of July.

You also have the option to do the challenge in any order.

I hope you’ll come and join us in this journey. Thank you for taking out the time to read this, hoping to see you with your camera from July 1st to 31st!
