Twittering Tales challenge is hosted by Kat Myrman. The goal is to write a twitter-length story, in 140 characters or less. You can see the challenge HERE.
I just love this week’s image! ❤ And I wrote a tiny poem instead of a tale this time, it just appeared in that form in my head. XD
You cannot hear the flutter
And feel the wind beneath your wings
You cannot rise from the gutter
While crawling on your hands and knees

This is an older poem, already published on this blog, but I changed word order in one sentence, then decided to post it again. XD
Do not be fooled so easily
With odour and colours of flowers.
(A rose is just a ruse
Leading you to thorns.)
Do not be dazzled blind
By the charming candlelight.
(A candle without fire
Leaves you in the dark.)
Do not let yourself believe
That warmth never ceases.
(Because winter always comes
But loss hurts less once it freezes.)
At times life feels like
Broken record on repeat
Circling endlessly
So, this is my first haiku on the blog! I just had to write at least one. 🙂

Between cruetly and kindness she dances
Like a candle in the dark of night;
She flickers and she twirls in circles
Changing colours, switching masks;
Living on the ballroom marble
But dreaming of the wet green grass.

Challenge No : 4
You write it down
And cast it far away,
Hoping someone will find it
Somewhere in the sea of words,
In the atmosphere of versed clouds.
It often starts simply
With an image, a memory,
An emotion long forgotten,
Turning soon into something more,
Fictional but true.
You bare your soul,
And offer pieces of your mind.
Sometimes the feeling’s good,
Inspiration like a warm hug,
Other times it makes you weep,
Art born from pain once felt.
And you write on,
Cry out your poetry in silence,
Each letter a scream,
Each word laughter,
And you cast it in the air
For someone to find and read –
Your message in a bottle.

Past comes
When the night is dark
Little memories
You thought you forgot.
Dreams avoid you
Moonlight’s scarce
By your side
Lie shards of past.
But one night
Your window will show
Full moon shining
In full moon glow.
A change indeed
Comes from inside
Strength of wolves
And night vision eyes.
A new you
Now can shine
Moonlit shadows of the past
Disappear in the light.

No one takes notice
Of one little kitty
Easy to trick you
Oh, what a pitty!
I do what I want
I never obey
I can walk upright
Now what do you say?
The littlest things
Have the power of will
I don’t play with yarn
I dress to kill.
In boots I walk
To make you see
That you should never
Make fun of me.
A silly little poem today, it was so fun to write. XD
