Sweeping cars in red and
black
Moon rays falling in grey
and silver
Cool wind blowing through
the trees and many a tresses
Tired souls enjoying a smoke
break
Aroma of maggi and parantha
from the nearby shop
Some strolling inside the
premises with their tea and coffee
And I watch this all unfold,
a typical Monday night at
work.
Written for National Poetry Writing Month. 30 poems in 30 days. Take a good look outside your window. Spend a minute or so jotting down all the nouns you see outside. Tree. Car. Bus. Dog. Then spend a minute or so writing down all the colors you see. Finally, think about taking place outside. Is the wind blowing? “Blow.” Is someone walking their dog? “Walk.” Spend a minute or so writing down these verbs. Now you’ve got a whole list of words from which to build a poem, mixing and matching as you go.
