MOTHER-O'-MINE (WRITEATHON DAY 2)


                     MOTHER-O'-MINE 

Millions of stars sparkle in my eyes when I see your face
You are my sun, my sunshine and all it's radiant rays

Myriad of emotions sweep away my heart
O mother-o'mine you're always on my mind although oceans apart…

Tantrums and tempers of mine you have tolerated without a frown
Heartstrings of mine are tugged when I see you've aged, silver tresses now your crown!

Ephemeral may be your outer beauty but your radiance shines from a heart full of love
Reminiscing my childhood days gives me a frisson of joy come rain or hail from above…

Yesteryears of halcyon days make me nostalgic
Once upon a time the serene life was so fun and fantastic...
Under the pearly moon and twinkling stars you told me tales of kings and princes majestic!

Mellifluous were your songs, mischievous were your eyes...
Evergreen was your enthusiasm, and so delectable your cakes and pumpkin pies!

Awaiting the day to come home to you
Neverending is my impatience…you've no clue!

Twilight ushers in fond memories 
Of long walks and heart-to-heart stories

Harmonious were our eventide full of banter and playful glories
Everlasting is the love I have for you, your gentle fingers caress away my worries

Wizard you are with friends and family, magic you wove with your devotion and modesty

Over the rainbow and star-spangled heavens, 
Is the mystical land of unicorns you told me with conviction!

Resplendent are the memorabilia I hold dear and cherish
Lustrous are the photo albums they hold a treasure in perpetual flourish

Dreary days turn into sunny summers and spring, 
When your voice lilting a cheer brings.

Triumphant I feel with your Midas touch
"Of course you can do it, go for it" you always vouch!

Magic wands and fairy dust you have in your cache
Even today I want to believe you are my fairy godmother from an angelic land!

THE BIG BAD WOLF( DAY 17, LETTER T)

                          CHAPTER 16                    THE BIG BAD WOLF  The pigs snarled like proper rascals, fixing their cold steely eyes on the Wolf's cottage. How dare he refuse to part with his cottage! When the pigs demand, it's given to them---no questions asked! Porkinn limped, Baconne was soggy, Swinedell rubbed a sore bump on his head, but they were far from defeated. Swinedell snorted, a crooked grin spreading across his face. "Wolf thinks 'e's posh, don't 'e? " Baconne sniffed the air, his nostrils flaring. "We want the cottage!” He growled. Porkinn cracked his fingers, his sly glance darting about.  The pigs crept towards the back door, their footsteps silent on the soft grass. They spotted the Wolf through the kitchen window, stirring a pot of steaming stew for dinner. They kicked the door in, the wood splintering jaggedly. The latch gave in....

A-Z Blogging Challenge Theme Reveal

Hey everyone! April is almost upon us and it reminds me of my childhood summer vacations, visiting my cousins in different cities, playing with them and watching movies late into the nights, brunches, more outdoor skips and hops and when the boiling sun drove us indoors, how the tangy, icy lemonade pitchers awaited us.  April is also about April showers, new beginnings and of late —the month of blogging! I'm excited to announce that I'll be participating in the A-Z April Blogger Challenge , starting on April 1st! This challenge is all about pushing myself to create new content, connect with fellow bloggers, and have immense fun while doing it. Throughout the month, I'll be posting daily(except on Sundays) on a variety of topics, ranging from personal reflections to mixed random bags of thoughts especially bordering on memoirs and non fiction. That's something I excel in apart from writing fantasy and the paranormal.  2025 will see my blog Sanguine Allegory bustling wit...

ANAM CARA

The waves are soft and frothy. Laced with gossamer frills tenderly kissing the tips of my toes covered with the grainy sand of the rugged seashore where I'm sitting, wistful. A gust of briny breeze tousles my hair as I gaze as far as my eyes can see.  A flock of terns wheel overhead, their sharp, shrill cries punctuating the air as they dive and swoop over the surfs. A lone frigate bird , its crimson belly dazzling like a jewel skims majestically above, its long, slender wings outstretched as it rides the thermals high above the ocean. I absorb the sights and sounds of the late afternoon while absentmindedly scooping seashells beside me. As the afternoon phases, the furthest rim of the ocean is fringed in a gilded hem and the sleepy sun yawns, its dipping glow streaking the sky in a mellow tangerine and warm cherry. As I continue sitting there, the ships and yachts appear --specks of light from the portholes glimmering in the distance, reminding me of the phrase “That ship has sai...

ABERCROMBIE LOCKE MANSION

This post is part of the Blogchatter A2Z Challenge 2026.                                                  CHAPTER 1        ABERCROMBIE LOCKE MANSION  The sky bled bruises of plum and cherry over the rolling hills. A full moon hung low against the mauve casting silver shards through the trees. The mansion made of cold greystone loomed large beyond the rusted iron gates. It grated on the gravel, rasping on the hinges and yawned open like a predator's jaw as Goldwynn booted it open with her foot. Her sneakers squished heavily on the mulch of dead leaves. Clutching her backpack, she looked up at the towering, grim structure forebodingly.  "Are you sure you want to do this?" her friend Lexi whispered, hesitating by the gate. "This mansion's totally cursed, they say." Lexi's voice was a thin thread. A chill crept up her back and she tight...
