Full Moon Day in May

Full moon day in May,

Auspicious.

Birth, Enlightenment and death,

A life of completeness.

Auspicious,

Full moon days in May.

Significant journey of Gautama Buddha;

Unfolded, core of Buddhist philosophy of

Significance, in the journey of human kind.

Wisdom has no boundaries;

Mind has no boundaries.

I recollected His teachings:

Universal Truths, Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path.

“It’s the last Super moon of the year.” He said.

“It’s the May’s flower moon, a month of colourful blooms.” She added.

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

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…
