I am not in the mood - Write tribe festival of words - Day 4

Using the learn a new word every day , I have attempted this


There she was , the eternal quidnunc ,a  floccinaucinihilipilification is what he would have liked his family to think of her. Quite the contrary , she ruled from every bit of conversation she had with his mother .
 
All those days , when he used to return from school with his results in hand , happy and content with what he carried , his only thoughts were to see the smile on his mother’s face  with what he has scored. The long walk from where his bus would drop him to his house was all about how he would convince her in feeling what he feels of his scores . Yestreen , he had felt the expectations rising in his mom as it had been for every year. Why was he not able to convince her on the dislike he had for all subjects except the study of animals – it’s not that he failed , it was just that he was not inclined towards others…
 
Maybe he would have made her understand if he ever got to talk to her alone, a joint family with a history of stalwarts and highly educated folks, he was the odd man out. Even at times , when he felt all was right , this jiggery-pokery of a lady who called herself his aunt would not give a chance.
 
Back to where he was standing today, not minding anyone , he walked up to his Mother and said “ I just want you to come with me today , for all the shame you have felt all these years , its time you realize your worth”
 
The stage was set , his mother was seated in the front row, feeling very different amongst all those men and women in attires that she would have hardly seen. She was not sure why she came , it was just for the calling of her womb, she had heard and faced a lot for him, “Why wasn’t he an engineer “ she never could understand.
 
As agog as a small child he heard his name being called , he touched his mother’s feet and walked up to the stage. There was nothing togainsay that the whole auditorium reverberated with rounds and rounds of applause for this man who was receiving his trophy . In that chilled space , his oxter was wet with sweat and then with just one look at her , he grabbed his chance to say all he wanted to say for all these years. Not a word he could remember of what he had written and was ready to tell his mother because he saw her smiling with all those regards she was receiving from the highest officials in the country for her son and that smile was no less than a moonbow.
 
Cryptozoology , the research that he had done in that field was no middling and the award from the President of the country stood evidence for that. She never understood what it was and why was he doing and he never wanted her to anymore. She had it all with her today , freedom and respect from people around her which a family so big could never give her. When he walked back with her out of the auditorium , all she said was “ Where are we going today , I am in no mood to go back home”http://writetribe.com/

Reel of Feelings ( A- Anger) #AtoZ Challenge

Image
A- ANGER I knew I was one , it was just 6 weeks and there was a long journey ahead of me . Have I done right in listening to that voice who enticed me into this..yes into this . I heard someone calling "Latha ...Latha..is everything fine" and then it was a roller coaster ride, an experience of a free fall, some back and forth, a flattening , a vacuum , a rush and then stillness. And then the voice again, "So how is it?", I said I want to come back , this is getting a lot stickier than you told me and that was absolutely not the deal we had. It laughed and spoke with its usual calmness "It has just begun my dear , the deal is for a lifetime , she is a lovely human , with her your journey will become more beautiful and in the next few minutes you will know how she feels for you". That word again "feeling " I thought, I am happy feeling happy was what I was saying when there were not one but 3 voices. All was broken, "Are you sure",

And it made the difference - Write tribe festival of words #4

Was it in her womb or in the flowers bloom ; Up in those valleys travelled , in the moments that left me baffled ; In the smile of a tender face , all those tears I shed in those phase; What was that which made the difference ; it was the time I learnt to be creative Am I the one to inspire which is what I aspire; Are you the one who inspired and never gave in to what you desired; Through the dark tunnels and the lit up sky , quite a contrary is what I sigh ; What was that which made the difference ; it was the time I learnt to be creative Noises that I hear all the time, in this world of brain that is mine; Words out of a voice , where the need is just for poise; A life worth a million dollar , all it requires is love and valor; What was that which made the difference ; it was the time I learnt to be creative Will we ever meet , O supreme , in your space so sweet; Colors is what I see as far as my eyes could sting like a bee; This is what ma

I am fertile (#InfertilityNotATaboo)

I am fertile, I now have a 7 seven year old - sounds obnoxious , isn't it , well that's the truth and I find it very weird every time I get to hear this told to me "Thank God, all went well for you and you have this child , not many women are lucky". A land worth millions does not promise a yield, industries which has lived a lifetime cannot predict their next year  - For God's sake , I am a Woman human and I was not born with a tag. I mention the WOMAN in particular, for , the four people who live around my neighborhood only seem to have time to find my missing tag. I indeed thank the almighty for the bundle of joy he has given me , I am here to narrate my first hand experience of my friend with whom I have lived through one of her most unreasonable phase. Her wedding was the most talked about in our circle, she got the guy she loved, she had the best job, she was at the peak of her career, a dream wedding , a dreamier honeymoon in the alps( All comments on
