Fable Project 1

· Leave a comment ·

A fable about identity, gratitude, and what happens when we refuse to let go of who we once were.

The donkey lost her royal life, but could not accept an ordinary one. In trying to reclaim a crown that no longer belonged to her, she failed to recognise the kindness, trust, and new life placed before her.

The farmer’s patience meant living through a long wait, and questioning his fate was only human.  Nevertheless, he chose to move forward.

Perhaps, growth asks something simple of us: honour what was, learn from what has changed, and know it is time to leave the old crown behind.

NaPoWriMo 2024 – Day 15 -Contemporary Theme

· Leave a comment ·

How do we express love or hate in contemporary communication through emojis?  From purple heart to yellow, I often find myself turning to the internet to decipher the meaning behind the colour of the heart I receive. Do we even know these emotions?

Sometimes, it is a challenge, leaving me uncertain, much like the central character in a story or movie.

NaPoWriMo 2024 -April 7 -Reverse Poetry -(Untitled)

· Leave a comment ·

Presenting a Reverse poem inspired by the line “Nobody loves me!” from Downhearted Duckling episode of Tom and Jerry (1953/54), which sparked a chain of thoughts.

A Reverse Poem, is a poetic form that requires you to read from down to up or in reverse order after reading it conventionally. It is characterised by dual tone and mood, and often expresses opposing viewpoints, with one interpretation being positive and another negative. These are my viewpoints.
