I believe in taking every day as a learning phase, and exploring my writing skills. I have enjoyed the challenges as a journalist, content writer and college lecturer, and at the moment am living life analysing the extraordinary in the ordinary!

A Thank You Note

Dear friends,

It’s five days since NaPoWriMo 2020 challenge came to an end. Each day of April, I tried to work with words and themes to write a poem. It was a sincere effort.

This month, is my time to reflect on my attempted creative venture. I have removed some of my works to analyse and review.

Thank you all for encouraging me by visiting, reading, marking a like, commenting and following my blog.

With all you beautiful people around to support, I am motivated to write more frequently.

Love and Light,

Deeya

Editing copies

Editing a copy. I am responsible, as a sub-editor/copy editor, for the missing ‘the’, ‘,’ and ‘a’, and the complexity of sentence and structure; to put ‘editing’ in simple words. I am responsible for maintaining the dignity of the writer’s idea, and not be a judge. But, I cannot make a copy mine, the original writer will be lost somewhere. When teaching young adults ‘to edit’, the challenge is to make them realise “be a teacher, correct and suggest. Keep the writer’s style alive.”

Wording ‘Editing’, styled in Haiku form of Poetry.

On Teachers’ Day

· 3 Comments ·

It was my teacher who told me

I can write.

It was my teacher who told me

Write from your heart.

It was a teacher who said,

“She will never make it”

It was my teacher who said,

“She is exactly where her heart is.”

Everyone is a teacher:

Something taught, anew often,

When in our life;

And grows apart physically.

Teaching remains,

Memorable.

Memorabilia,

In making me

The who; I am; you are

Lessons, not to be judged

“Good or bad” ever,

And I am grateful…

Finding My Colours

Finding My Colours
Link to amazon.com

Finding My Colours, a collection of 40 poems, is the latest book, published on Amazon Kindle (digital platform). The poems lay bare the fact, there is colour in our daily life. But it is in each one of us to find for ourselves the mysterious reconnection to our imagination as well as self.
Defining Self is a relative term very dependent on the perception – one’s own and people’s opinion.
