M For Moolah

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

"homemade food

dipped in love

Moolah saved"

M Moolah

One of the mantras that I follow by heart is as much of home made food as possible. Almost everything from spices, herbs, sauces, jams etc are grown or made at home. I wish I could do more. It not only is healthy, it also saves a lot of moolah.

So what are your mantras of food? Do you like going out or do you love spending time in the kitchen?

And Some of the blogs that I love from yesterday are listed below. Do check them out.

One Last Mile

One last mile

I want to walk with you

Looking into your eyes

Holding your hands

Walking in eternity

To the whale-road (1)

 

My feet were forlorn

Only a few days back

My days were heavy

Only a few days back

My mornings were dark

Only a few days back

My walks were lonely

Only a few days back

Before you took my hands

Into yours

And we walked towards

The whale-road (1)

We just had our first kiss

We just had our first miss

You just wiped the tears from my face

I just had my fears replaced

I just tasted your breath

The taste still lingers

Your blue is still entwined

With the orange hue of my fingers

No don’t let go,

Walk with me

Just one last mile

To the whale-road (1)

We just had our first FIRSTs

Leave the blood-amber(2)

Go break the wound-hoe(3)

I will not let you go

To the weather of weapons(4)

Before you walk with me

Just one last mile

To the whale-road(1)

I will make sure

The last mile lasts forever

The sword will never sleep(5)

We keep walking forever

To the whale-road (1)

L For Let It Go

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

“Heart breaks and bleeds

Dreams shatter and die

Let it go”

L Let it go

A very valuable lesson in life "Let it go". Easy said than done. I have (rather had) a tendency to live in my past, to count heart breaks more than my blessings. I have a dark twisted (Kind of) past which use to overshadow my present a lot. But I have changed (Still work in progress though). As my elder one is growing; he is also teaching me a lot of life skills, like letting go. His heart breaks become mine and together we work on it and we move on. This has also healed me, I am more free from my past and more aware of my present.

Where are you? Still in the past, lost in the future, living in the moment or somewhere lost in between?

Hope

Hope,

A word, a path,

A way of life

A higher being that gives meaning

To lowly desires

A down to earth emotion

That drives worldly powers

A wish, a dream,

A cry for help

Growing in gleam

A knot in the heart

Lashing our dreams

A pit in the stomach

Not letting us sleep

A prayer, A shout out

An optimism

Overflowing the stream

A wishful thinking

An itch that is stinking

An empowered obsession

A racing passion

A desire, A plea

A screech, A scream

To the power supreme

A belief in self

An undying thirst

Zeal to never give up

A journey to oneself

A flight of all possibilities

An attitude

Non acceptance of anything less

Than desired

The fire refusing to sleep

The wings fluttering and raring to go

A hope

The hope

Of a better tomorrow

Of a better future

Red

A little red

In my blue

A little kick

To my mood

I swirl and breathe in

I revel and absorb

A little sniff

Of heaven

My lips move

But don’t talk

My eyes closed

But can still see

As I bring you

Close to me

A little swig

Of bliss

You in me

Dancing on my tongue

Twirling in my mouth

Burning my desire

Filling me up

You enter in my pores

And make me free

A little spring

In my steps

A lot of hue

In my dreams

I open my arms

And feel the wind beneath

A glass of red

Gives me wings
