Musing Mermaid

As i try hard to scribble today; Words fall short and thoughts nibble away. The mayhem in mind and heart does rounds; Work pulls me back as lost desires i found Here I brainstorm, in this commotion so keen to dive; Ideas count their breaths and refuse to come alive. Resolute to pour down when I try; Words pledge not to come my way. Deep in my heart those abstract things inside; Waving a bye to them the hands refuse to type. All my dreams of tomorrows and yesterdays; Seem like just a touch away I stand here with my wings spread ready to take off in a quick flight; Wandering in the darkness of my mind; searching for a spark that can unwind In anguish i give up, nothing came out concrete; I looked up and saw these lines, though petite As i try hard to scribble today; Words fall short and thoughts nibble away

I want to forget and forgive the facts that are rooted in pain Digging in my own back yard the old and sullen truths For long they bruised, Its time for them to be drained As i retrace my footsteps Intending to refine my deeds No longer i want to bear… While I learn from my mistakes, I promise to let go these fears I try to catch my share of happiness, life offers It orders me to free the sorrows and pains Clinched in my fists, those unwanted stains As I set them free, I see the heaviness flying. I run in hurry all over to gather… the smiles and blessings which are scattered I place it well in the corners of my home And it echoes behind the walls, tel...

I gaze, i grin, i giggled so what if the blow triggered? The point where i was hinted the unusual demeanor, when it was a spooky little carrier. The talks molded n folded, adding to the heat and the toungue scolded. We promised and got united for happy stories, Daily dose of love and no worries... I glance, I hear, I say, so what if we didnt go our way? It was an over debated issue, which we shouldn't have pursued.. The conversation just got worsened, and the aisles to each other sharpened stabbing each of us deep inside.. o petty things to be resolved we decide. I chop, I cook, I hear so what we let down on how to cater I welcome the suggestions with a long face tried keeping and doing stuff at your pace The words which boiled and blistered, worked faster than how sugar minced.. lets burn it up on the burner and we rinsed I sob, i cry, I howl so what the promises to keep still crawl I go erratic, i figure and explain, the sheer blame games we refrain. standing on the edge i ponder...

No no...i havent spelled it wrong..It's not that im going to try my hands on the traditional Hukka....This one though sounds familiar with 'HUKKA' but is poles apart in real sense. A glance ********** Haiku is a poetic form and a type of poetry from the Japanese culture. Haiku combines form, content, and language in a meaningful, yet compact form. The themes include nature, feelings, or experiences. Usually they use simple words and grammar. The most common form for Haiku is three short lines. The first line usually contains five (5) syllables, the second line seven (7) syllables, and the third line contains five (5) syllables. Haiku doesn't rhyme. A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind. This is the challenge of Haiku - to put the poem's meaning and imagery in the reader's mind in ONLY 17 syllables over just three (3) lines of poetry!
