I was asked to write a poem/story based on the emoji that described me, I chose these
💜⏰🔥📚🚘🌘
Jay, I hope you like the words. (I forgot about them and had to write in 10 min)
Once upon a time, in far, far lands
2 friends with oceans separating their sands
Listen well, all ye listening
Their friendship was very heartening
He loved her for all her heart
She adored him from the start
Their times did not match due to faces of earth
And yet they were punctual wishing at the time of birth
But their friendship was such a boon
So they made the times match, he loved the sun and she the moon
Tempers were different, he cool and she fiery
But books were the link that held them quietly
She loves driving, he hardly drives
And on request of Jay, this she writes.
—Here you go Jay, my impromptu poem, done in 10min, so not edited. Hope you like. I was being you, not brief😜

It’s gorgeous and tells the story of six emojis… 🙂 Thank you!
Aww.. I am glad you liked. I couldn’t find my poem divided into 3 messages on twitter. Hehehe. Twitter is beyond me
It makes it a fun mystery or puzzle to find!
Impromptu….done in 10 minutes!!!
Shalini, you should be writing also, in addition to reviewing books
Hahaha… Thank you so much. But my words come only sometimes. I tried writing in the morning. I was blank. Then got a reminder from James J Cudney IV and the brain cells worked fast. Hence the poem😊😊
Anyway, I will be looking forward to your book
Hahaha… I also would be Kurian. Are you back home?
No Shalini, still in Florida. Back only on April 15
Enjoy… Have a great time.
You too. Take care
Poem?
I think so. I tried to make it a poem.
How did it come?
I don’t know.. On its own I was asked to write 6 emoji which described me. Once I did. One of my friends teased and said, now write a story/poem so I tried. Whole day I couldn’t think of anything, suddenly the words came
Ohhh nice
Thanks, some days rarely I can write
You do writ excellently, only thing is you need to give your brain some time to shape your thoughts and put it on paper.
Hahaha that does not happen with me, I stare at the paper and nothing happens. Been there, tried that
Then how did write the poem hehehebe
I write spontaneously when the words come. I can’t make the words come. They have to come on their own. My friend’s words triggered it. No idea how that happens
I don’t think I am eligible to suggest you how to write. All I know is you can write. It’s upto you how to sort it out.
Wonderfully written shalini I just had read your poem.
Omg, you read just now… I am glad you liked it. Thank you so much
Yeah shalini words were beautifully framed told you na you can write. Keep writing.
Thanks Vijay for all your support
My pleasure
So glad you posted it here! I read the bits and pieces on Twitter but it’s so much sweeter seeing it put together. I love it!
My poem got lost in the comments. I couldn’t find it when I went back to it. Twitter is a maze I can’t navigate.
Thank you so much. Even I was surprised. I could string words and make a poem. I think Jay is a catalyst for the trigger to write
Lol. He is quite inspiring 😉
Twitter is still beyond my comprehension as well. Lol
I am so glad you liked it
Aww this was lovely!
Thank you so much💜💜
You’re welcome <3
You should consider writing a book dearie 😘😘
Haha I did. I looked blankly at the laptop it looked blankly at me. After 10min it went to sleep then I went to sleep
😂😂😉😉
Thank you so much💜💜
Ha ha!! Great poem!! 💖💖💖🍻
Haha thank you…
I could spend two days and maybe come up with one half as long and not as good. LOL
Hahaha thank you so much. Your words mean a lot. Sometimes I can string words. I don’t know what triggers it. I tried writing in the morning but couldn’t get the words, then suddenly I could by evening. So I have no idea how does that happen, honestly.
My attempt at poetry…. Roses are red, violets are blue, I stink at poetry so I’ll turn it over to you. 🙂
Hahaha… Here I go
Roses are red, violets are blue
Carrie is a wordsmith, she doesn’t know
Roses are red, violets are blue
Carrie may not be a poet, but her words are true
Roses are red, violets are blue
Carrie understands feelings, more than I do
Roses are red, violets are blue
Carrie is beautiful, so my words just flew
Haha you are just proving you think a heck of a lot faster than I do. I’m definitely leaving the poetry to others, not a creative bone in my body. 🙂
I am learning to check if I have creative gene. Also I released if I like a person, then the words come😉😉💟💟
I do good just to write down my thoughts in reviews, and even then I wonder half the time if I’m making any sense. LOL
You make perfect sense. I just checked out your review about the visitor by K L Slater
Thanks, sometimes reviews come easy and other times I struggle with what to say so I’m not mentioning anything important and it all sounds better in my head than when I actually type them out.
Actually, we who read your reviews, don’t get such a feeling. I love your reviews.
My review of Visitor by K. L. Slater is dedicated to you.
Thanks Shalini! 🙂 I need to catch up on reading other reviews sometime today so I’ll definitely check it out. 🙂
