NaPoWriMo Day 18: Neologism

by

The prompt for NaPoWriMo for today is to write a poem that incorporates neologisms. What’s that? Well, it’s a made-up word! Your neologisms could be portmanteaus (basically, a word made from combining two existing words, like “motel” coming from “motor” and “hotel”) or they could be words invented entirely for their sound.

Relationships

by

Relationships are quite fragile in nature. Even a trivial unpleasant word or action can disrupt our entire belief system. It takes years of love, care, bonding and sacrifices to form and sustain relationships but only a single deed of misconduct, for cracks to set in. Harsh words create a hole in the ship of relations … Read more

Nurturing The Tree of Life

  When seeds of hard work Are sown in life’s soil   When minerals of wisdom Add strength during turmoil   When candor waters this plant And patience tills the field   When perseverance is the air And faith offers sunlight   The saplings of success Sprout on tree of life! Bearing fruits of joy, … Read more
