Yellow streak on her aging hair –
Strong, independent and young.
Young man hid behind aging wall;
Wall stood strong, not his yellow streak*.
*Idiom “yellow streak” : act cowardly

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!
Yellow Pages
Telephone booth
Watches over
Yellow pages.
Stranger sighs!

Yellow
Golden showers of flowers
I count not the tiny petals;
Suspended layers of yellow
Sunshine filtered and sparkled;
I call out to my admiring heart
“Step not on the fallen yellow;”
Layers spread by teasing wind
Laburnum trees blossom; and blossomed
memories from yellowing frames.
