Today’s prompt: Write a piece of prose around the question: “How do we stay focused when the world around us is falling apart?”
Art is cathartic. Art heals and fills all our crevices brimming with loneliness and despair with hope and creativity. Art is not only our companion when the streets are brimming with giggles and laughter but also when the lanes are deserted. Art also takes the form of the lonely sonatas oozing from the Italian balconies. A congruous thought. A staccato of hope and acceptance lacing the deserted lanes. When the world is falling around us, Art not only glues our broken pulverized pieces but also cups the cold palms of our dear ones. Solitude can be taken as a blessing and a curse equally. Shakespeare penning King Lear in the bleakest moment of his life had a purpose. Art heals, Art soothes.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.
