Early March, Umber from The Summer Rain had nominated me for sharing LOVE. Thanks for the nomination, Umber! 🙂
For accepting the nomination, I need to do the following –
- Write about LOVE in ten lines of 4 words each
- Share my favourite quote on love
- Nominate 10 other bloggers
So here it goes –
I am not a poet; but I have tried to make a humble effort to put down my thoughts & emotions on this huge subject called LOVE in 10 lines. As Umber says in her post, “Much like capturing a storm in a bottle, that is if I can catch hold of it!”
Love, a free bird
That none can cage;
Spreading wide its wings,
In an open sky;
But when it descends
It is like clouds,
That doesn’t bring rain,
But that which adds
Colours to sunset sky,
On a blissful day.
One of my favourite quotes (out of many) on LOVE is –
Even after all this time,
The Sun never says to the earth,
“You owe me”.
Look what happens with a love like that,
It lights the whole sky!
I believe that in love, one need to be selfless and what one gives, comes back manifold. 🙂
And here are my nominations to carry the LOVE forward 🙂 –
- GB from The Editions of Green Boochi
- Natasha from Points to Ponder
- Vishal from Vishal Bheeroo ~ Scripting the story of life
- Michelle from Book Chat
- Nibha from Expressions!
- Valerie from Nikitaland
- Pixie’s World – My Take on Everything
- Stockpiling Life…..for Future!
- Ashima from Lime ‘n’ Lemony
- Smitha from Any Excuse to Write

Beautifully expressed.😊
I would take that as a complement….thanks Umber! 🙂

I would also like to add here that, thanks to you, I am now trying my hands in poetry, bit by bit….thank you so much! 😀
That is absolutely great😊. See where it takes you. I think you will do pretty good. You have an eye for beauty.
getting complements twice in a day….I am overwhelmed now 😀
thanks for tagging me, but this looks a little tough. I’m not at all a good writer when it comes to poetry.. I’m garrulous, I can write a book on something but can’t precise it 🙂 hehehe
shall definitely try but 🙂
even I am not a poet but wanted to accept the nomination because it is about LOVE :); so it would be nice if you would try too 🙂
