WRITERS' BLO(G)CK

Phone rings incessantly

            disturbing my dreamy thrills

Pal speaks appreciatively

            highlighting my writing skills.

“Why the long silence, may I ask?

            No posts on your blog?

Posts came thick and fast,

            now why none?”, he barks.

Me: “Brain on strike now, yaar

            Refuses to churn out stuff

Parked like a petrol-less car

            without a clue to crank it up”

“Don’t worry, my dear”, he says

            “Common is this to writers

To work around it, many are ways

            Desperate situations, desperate measures”

“Ever heard of ‘sudal’?, he winks

            “Do a survey and surf the blogs

Choose what holds your interest

            this is full time business of cogs”

Never heard words sweeter

            that warmed my heart so

Like I got a load of Ferraro Rocher

            that I gobbled at one go!

So here I come fellow bloggers

            to ‘suttufy’ your matter

There are bloggers and coggers

            I choose to join the latter!

PS-1:  This is not a figment of my imagination and all characters are alive and kicking

PS-2: ‘sudal’ and ‘suttufy’ refers to cog in Tamil slang-in plain words copying.

 I graciously accept your thanks for enriching your vocabulary through this post ;)

            

KALEIDOSCOPE

Life lay spread out before the eyes

like visions through a kaleidoscope.

Mirthful moments, dreamy memories,

life on a platter, forever vernal.

Pieces of glass shift their axis;

changing landscapes, shifting patterns,

giant waves crash against the rocks,

an endless churning; the bits never settle.
