Day 4 - D for "Day"


Dawning upon the muddy path,

Darkness melts into sunshine.

Draped in warmth, world comes alive,

Doused with distant chirping sounds.

Drizzling light dabbed on streams,

Display scenes of deep delight!

Dancing across fields and ponds,

Day break comes dispelling the dusk.

Discover the dream you dreamt last night,

Dwelling in the divine design.

Debunk code of daily cares,

Drive away the demons of doubt,

Diffuse gloom, devour life!

Day at a time, it gently unfolds,

Day at a time, unwrap the present,

Day at a time - don't falter, don't fret!

  8. Beautiful. You amaze me. How do you do it... i mean it must not be easy to write poem after poems focusing on a particular letter?

    1. It starts somewhere and goes somewhere else Preetilata - I don't know for sure if being confined to a letter for the most part makes it difficult or easy :-)Cause I work with the words instead of the words working with me. KWIM?? Hoping to stick to the pattern as long as my vocabulary allows me to. A HUGEEE thank you for being amazed :-)) <3
