Monday Blessings - Feelin' Bittersweet

Hello Poetteers,

Family - you realize it's not complete with one person missing after they have been with you.

Fall - the weather may drain you but there is a sweetness that comes with the season.

Night - everything falls quiet. There is silence and you heart final feels at peace. It means you can be yourself when you pray. It also means you can finally sleep.

Noise - it's quiet for so long when it comes back you know it means happiness.

OctPoWriMo

Airports
bittersweet with hellos and goodbyes
can't come or leave without tears
don't dare to say the opposite
even if you
feel strong
going strong
hope it's only a few tears
instead of an overwhelming feeling
just pray and have faith everything will be alright.

Side note: I probably would have done the whole alphabet but then I came to the letter K and didn't know what to put.

Thank you,

Fida

kings and queens
love beautiful jewels
mostly gold
nothing cheap
opals and diamonds
pearls and rubies
queens love kings

Though I'd help you out !:)

Everything always works out in the end if you let it happen at its own pace.

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
