#NaPoWriMo2025 - Opposites makes life!

 #alsnapowrimo2025 #day18




Love and hate are woven
In the fabric of the soul,
They pull at the heartstrings
And leave us feeling whole and broken.
Love lifts us to the heavens,
Yet hate drags us to the depths,
A never-ending tug-of-war,
Where the battle rages without rest.
Joy and sadness walk together
Through the same winding path,
In one breath, we laugh aloud
And in the next, tears fall fast.
We cradle both in fragile hands,
Each emotion has its place,
The light and dark entwine,
Creating beauty in their grace.
Life and death are strangers,
But they meet at every turn,
Life is but a fleeting moment,
And death the fire that will burn.
We chase the days, unaware
That time is slipping fast,
A single breath, a single step,
And all that was will be the past.
Day and night are bound by fate
In an eternal dance of time,
The sun gives way to the moon,
While stars above silently chime.
One holds the warmth of day,
The other the peace of night,
Together they form the rhythm
That sets the world alight.
Trust and betrayal walk beside
Each other in our hearts,
Trust is the fragile flower,
Betrayal the thorn that imparts.
We build our faith in others
Then watch it slowly fall,
Yet still, we seek to trust again
Despite the rise and the fall.
These dimensions of life intertwine,
A tapestry of joy and strife,
Each thread, each emotion,
Shapes the beauty of our life.

#NaPoWriMo2025 #Day13 - Days of the Week!

 #alsnapowrimo2025 #day13 #week

*Monday*
Morning blues greet me as I rise from bed
The rush begins with the ticking clock ahead
Running to office with a hundred things to do
Cooking and meditating to calm my mind too
Deadlines loom closer with every passing hour
But I push through it all with my inner power
*Tuesday*
A hectic whirlwind that never seems to stop
Meetings, plans, and projects pile to the top
Poetry in the evenings and long walks to breathe
Finding little moments of peace I can retrieve
The pace is fast but I hold onto my flow
For the challenges only help my strength grow
*Wednesday*
Midweek brings a sense of balance and light
The day feels smooth as everything feels right
Work gets done with clarity and ease
A little moment of peace, a little more breeze
I’m halfway through with a hopeful heart
Knowing soon, the weekend will start
*Thursday*
Devotional chanting fills the air around
Meditation keeps my feet firmly on the ground
Trying to finish what I’ve set out to do
Hoping by evening, I’ll be through
With work commitments slowly coming near
I welcome the weekend that’s finally here
*Friday*
Friday arrives with a sense of relief
Prayer and reflection to bring me peace
Wrapping up the week, tying every thread
To rest and relax, no more work ahead
Weekend is near, with joy it calls
I take a moment for the beauty that falls
*Saturday*
Suprabhatam greets me with a peaceful start
Cleaning and yoga brings me back to heart
Writing my thoughts and just being free
The world slows down and I let it be
Saturday is mine, a time to reflect
In these moments, I feel truly blessed
*Sunday*
A lazy morning with a late breakfast spread
Spicy biryani for lunch, nothing left unsaid
Movies or the beach, evening fun calls
I prepare for the week with no regrets at all
For every day planned and organized brings flow
A beautiful rhythm in life that continues to grow

#NaPoWriMo2025 - Rules of Life!

 #day9 #alsnapowrimo2025

*Rules for Life*
Life may seem like a garden of flowers,
But it's a roller coaster of trials and powers.

To live with peace and joy also there’s a way,
Follow these rules each and every day.
Rise early and greet the sun,
Health, wealth and wisdom have just begun.

Yoga and food that’s good for you,
Keeps the body and mind healthy too.
Honesty shines as truth always wins,
Cheating never leads to peace within.


Straightforwardness is a mirror so clear,
Reflecting a soul we hold dear.
Cleanliness is divine both inside and out,
Brings blessings without a doubt.

Respect for elders as their wisdom we seek,
Their blessings make us strong and not weak.
Simplicity, truth, and love for all,
Are keys to life's most beautiful call.

With kindness to animals, nature, and land,
Together we’ll make the world grand.

#NaPoWriMo2025 - Let Go!

 #alsnapowrimo2025 #day8

Let go
Let go of the weight you carry so long
Let go of the burdens that make you feel wrong

Release the doubts that cloud your bright sky
Set your spirit free and learn to fly
Let go of the fears that steal your peace
Let go of the past and let your heart release

Embrace the present, its gift so true
Let go of what no longer serves you
Let go of the pain that holds you tight
Let go of the darkness, welcome the light

For in letting go you’ll find your way
A new beginning at the break of day

#NaPoWriMo2025 -Freedom from the past! #day6

 #alsnapowrimo2025

I need freedom from my past
To break these chains that hold me fast,
Memories like shadows creep,
Whispered secrets that I keep.
The wounds may heal but scars remain,
Each echo brings a hidden pain,
I long to fly beyond this strife,
And live a new unburdened life.
The past, a storm I cannot tame,
But I seek peace, not guilt or shame.
Freedom calls my soul to free,
A new beginning and a chance to be me.

#NaPoWriMo2025 - Sky Full of Stars - Sai Manasa shines afar!

 #alsnapowrimo2025 #day5

Sky full of stars....of my loved one...happy birthday to our beloved Sai Manasa in heaven
A sky full of stars twinkles in the night
Each one a memory burning bright
I look up and feel your presence near
My loved one lost but still so clear
In the quiet sky, your spirits soar
Shining like star forevermore
Though you're gone, you're never far
Guiding us like every star
Each light a whisper, soft and kind
A love that's eternal, one of a kind
In the vast sky your glow remains
A comforting presence through all pains
The stars up high they light our way
Reminding me of you every day
Though you're gone, you live on still
In the stars that twinkle, shining at will

A Stone of Hope #NaPoWriMo2025

 #napowrimo2025 #day3

A Stone of Hope
Through darkest nights I stand so strong and tall alone
A silent wish a dream reborn in solid stone
The world may shake my heart may break but I remain
Through storm and fire through endless pain I rise again
Each step I take each path I make with steady grace
The echoes fade but hope will stay in time and space
A mountain high the winds may cry yet I won’t bend
With hands held tight I chase the light until the end
No chains can hold no fear can mold the fire inside
Through endless fight I find my light and cast it wide
A stone of hope in hands of those who dare to dream
The voices loud the world so proud with golden gleam
I stand in faith no storm can break the truth I own
With love and might through darkest night I walk alone

#Napowrimo2025 *The Complexity of Us* #Day2

 #day2 #alsnapowrimo2025

Theme: The complexity of relationships
*The Complexity of Us*
Love once a whisper, soft and true,
A melody sweet in morning’s dew.

Fingers entwined as hearts set ablaze,
Dreams entwined in a golden haze.
But love is fickle, love is strange,
A shifting tide with a sudden change.

Laughter fades into silent wars,
Words unspoken behind closed doors.
The hands that held now push away,
Echoes linger but hearts betray.

Trust turns brittle and cracks appear,
Once so close but now drowned in fear.
Distance grows where warmth once lay,
Memories beg for time to stay.

Yet longing burns in midnight’s air,
A love too broken yet still there.
Is love a promise or just a game?
Is it fate or is it flame?

Through pain and passion, loss and fight,
We love, we break—we hope, despite
