Resolutions

Today’s a little different,

It’s the first of January

I’m usually flopped over the bed

Quite hesitant to hurry.

 

But today’s a special day

Eyes alight with golden hope

To succeed and achieve further

And spread joy at every scope.

 

I whip out my pen and paper

(Or a phone, considering day and age)

Ready to scribble out my resolutions;

Reach a more triumphant stage!

 

Whether it’s to study harder

Or the classic ‘lose weight’,

Being a tad less touchy,

Being not so late!

 

Need we make or break a habit,

And begin with a clean slate?

Make ourselves quit cold turkey

Or turn over a new leaf this date?

 

There’s always a little goal

Which we strive to make shine

(And hey, if they’re same as last year,

Don’t worry, so are mine 😉 )

The End Of An Year

1o minutes for the clock to strike 12

All gathered around in glee

A celebration on New Year’s Eve

Bubbling joy in the family.

 

It’s all good humour: parties and so

But that moment: when all are solemn:

Past accomplishments, even hardships

We pause to remember them.

 

365 days, that’s 8760 hours!

We end up maturer at heart,

Festivals and birthdays whoosed by

They’re cherished as from 2015 we part.

 

While we recall memories

Tick! The clock begins a new year!

Yet another, of hope and beginnings

2016 has begun: It’s officially here!

Winter Flowers

 

While the icy wind bites my skin

And the green leaves fade grey

Amongst the lifeless branches

A pop of hues does sway.

 

It strikes up from  the earthen pot

Where lay the trees’ shed leaves

A strong burst of joy does dwell

A lovely sight making time freeze.

 

Red, yellow, and pink dahlias

Intricacy, vibrance, and hue

Smashing paast mundane chill

A blessing bright and new.

 

Every petal the shape of morning dew

Filled in with rainbowy pigment

Flared out like rays of the sun

Held by the emeral ligament.

 

Oh the divine creation: a flower

Rising up in the season of snow

A stunning  bud striking dull gales

Oh winter flower, you dazzle me so.

UPDATE!

Hello readers!

I am incredibly sorry for how I haven’t been posting for so long. It’s been so hectic this year, because of all the new pressure thats been biting at my head at school, and studying takes up every moment of my spare time. And even worse- I have my exams coming up. My first proper, big finals! It’s been crazy, and i doubt I’ll get through this school thingy alive.

Well I assure you, the time I spend NOT posting on my blog is not occupied by anything sweet but cruel studying. But I am hoping to squeeze in some time soon and get back to posting what I love: poetry!!

And here’s a hint to my next posts: i have been feeling very nature friendly this month and my upcoming uploads are likely to be about Mother Earth, and yada yada. Well thanks for holding tight!!!!!!!

Lots of love

Tapasmi

Joy!

It’s that spark than lives within us,
It’s that little ray of light,
It’s that source if inspiration
And that flower of our delight!

“But how to find it, friend”
I am sure that is what you’d say,
Well, I will answer it right now:
Just look a little way:

When you look between the branches,
You’ll see a bird family twittering with love,
Or just look up towards the sky
And note the calm clouds floating above.

But the nearest place to find it:
It resides within ourselves, you know!
Close your eyes and search your heart
And feel that joyful, happy glow.

Activate it when you’re pure of heart,
But it’ll sleep off if you’re being mean
So to find that lovely spark,
Just keep your mind clean!

So that’s how you find joy,
And please value this advice,
So whenever you’re down,
You needn’t frown, just be nice!
Hi guys here’s a quick little poem (don’t mind that it’s a tad bit too simple please, It was a ten minute job, but I still worked!) I was supposed to write a poem on the same topic at school but I was called for something else, and I wasn’t given extra time to write it later at school, so I wrote it at home instead! Hope you enjoyed! 😉

SAVE ANIMALS

Hello friends! Here is a little poem on saving animals. We have another tiny class show coming up and our topic was “Care for Animals!” So I wrote a short poem which we are going to say along with a skit and a few more peppy activities. So here it is:

Oh this Earth so green and blue

Is a blessing God has sent you

Every single living creature

Given existence by Mother Nature .

Every movement is life’s gush

From an alligator to the thrush

We hope that with our little show

You’ll understand how animals come and go.

Before animals and humans together were great

But now, animals die in every state

Before, our friendship was instilled

Now animals are constantly killed!

So friends, let’s take a step today

To stop animals from dying away.

 

Be Happy

Being happy is a joy</

Don’t let it slip your hand

Sometimes other people

Your feelings wont understand.

 

But it doesn’t mean they hate you!

Everyone thinks you’re supercool!

When the see how awesome you are<

They feel like a fool.

 

Don’t pucker up your forehead>

Let your dimple show your smile

The amount of how much you rock

Is longer than the Nile!

So wipe away those silly tears

And laugh and grin and play

For we all love you, my friend

We’ll keep sadness at bay.

Thinking What To Post

Hello friends! Today, I thought about what to post, and I had no idea what to do. It was like my brain pulled a fuse!
So I just let my tongue go loose about how blank I felt, and I was like: “That’s it!” And so, I wrote a poem about not knowing what to post in WordPress. Let me know if you can relate! 😉

I wondered what to post
On my WordPress Blog today.
A poem? Or a story?
Photos of Picture Day?

I told my brain to imagine.
I told it to go and think.
I grasped on ideas
Like a kinda ravenous mink.

I drooled on my bed.
I clutched and pulled my hair.
But whatever I tried to do,
My head just seemed bare!

I gnawed on my pen.
I scratched my hand.
The concept of creativity
I tried hard to understand!

But after fifteen minutes
Of sitting like a chump
I got kind of an idea
Which popped up like a bump.

What if, like Blyton’s Fatty
I let my tongue go loose?
I’d rhyme out all my feelings
And the poem I would choose!

So by the time I finished,
I ranted out my thought cloud
And this is what I said
Quite soon out loud.

I hope you enjoyed
This bit of my lifestyle
Of how I wrote the poem
Which drove me quite senile!

The House

I used to be a strong bricked house
With families laughing inside
A fireplace once flamed before
And happiness didn’t hide.
But the grave story that occurred
And the master living in died
And tears and coughs filled the floor
Swept over like a tide
The mother cried and wept
The children screamed and flailed
Until it became to much to bare
And to oblivion they had sailed.
Then the orange heart of fire
That once gleamed the chimney down
Never glowed ever again
Just soot remained with a frown.
The flower-patterned curtains
That once had been drawn
Now had fell with neglect
All happiness had gone.
The door which had once
Greeted eager friends and guests
Now was closed for eternity
Creaking with blackened crests.
The planked floor that once had shone
Was now layered with grime and hurt
No love penetrated any of the thick
And unvanishing, evil dirt.
So the family had left me!
I was left all alone!
I was now just the ignored servant
No longer the house of the throne.
At first the sorrow came to me
But then the bitter thoughts in me
Flashed by the ceiling that be my mind
How to please a lovely family
Would be so hard to find.
WAS…IT…MY…FAULT…
THAT…DEATH…HAD…OVERCOME?
THAT GOD’S SPITE HAD KILLED MY MASTER
THAT I HAD TO WEEP AND REMAIN GLUM?
I BEG YOU LORD! BRING ME BACK >em<
THOSE DAY LOVE AND CARE
OF FLAMING CANDLELIGHT ON THE TABLE
INSTEAD OF CUPBOARDS BARE?<
MUST I SUFFER ALL THIS PAIN?<
CAN YOU NOT PLEASE REFRAIN?</
DONT MAKE ME MAD, OH, GOD!>Em
DONT MAKE ME GO INSANE!
Let humans live inside me
Let one water the flowers on
The ivy and the dying trees<
clasping against the lawn!
Now that you have decided
To not return my family dear
I shall change…. I will cause no happiness
Just DREAD AND SPITE AND FEAR!
I STAND ALONE! I DEFEND MYSELF!
NO MORE MEMORIES
DIG FOR AND TO DELVE!
I NOW TAKE MY SAD REVENGE
AND GHOSTS SHALL NOW LIVE IN
THE SORRY BROKEN TILES OF ME
I DONT BELIEVE IT A SIN!
THEY FEED OF THE GLOOM AND
THEY FEED OF MY DREAD!
BUT THAT IS ALL THAT IS LEFT FOR
MY SPIRIT IS DEAD.
I now live for ever all alone
The sun rays signs of doom
I know for fact that flowers
In the gardens wont ever bloom.
Oh I give up! It is the last straw!
I throw my hand up in the air.
I am closing, dying at my will
DYING IN DESPAIR.

 

 

 

 

Reading Books

Hello friends!
Today’s poem is a little cheesy. Yep, I admit it! It doesn’t have much of a deep meaning. Not too much to read between the lines. I wrote this one for an assembly at class, and our topic was ‘Reading Books.’ So it is a little more of a “Read it and liked it” kind of poem more than the usual “Read it and still thinking about it.” My classmates kind of loved it though!
It isn’t too bad though. Here hoes….

When you want lasting joy
You don’t need a children’s toy
The thing for which you need to look
Is just a simple story book
And when you start, Oh My, Oh My,
Books shall definitely satisfy!
Dissolving into world of dreams
As you read your smile beams
Books on shelves line by line
All of them are simply divine!
In castles kings and queens do dwell
Pirates hunt for treasure as well
Weird splotches of fuzzy blue light
Stars gleaming in the deep blue night.
JK Rowling’s wizardry
Roald Dahl’s fascinating fantasy
Famous cookbooks for the kitchens
Grasping stories by Mr Dickens
Blyton tales better than one could
Geronimo Stiltion as good as good!
In Jane Austen’s tales we are lost
Enrapturing verses by Robert Frost.
Reading ignites inside us a fire
Books fill our hearts desire.
