Today's Prompt : FIBONACCI POETRY
What is Fibonacci poetry?
Fibonacci poetry is a form based on the Fibonacci number sequence.The Fibonacci sequence begins with either zero or one, followed by one, and proceeds based on the rule that each number called a Fibonacci number is equal to the sum of the preceding two numbers. The sequence begins like this:
1 + 0 = 1
1 + 1 = 2
2 + 1 = 3
3 + 2 = 5
5 + 3 = 8
8 + 5 = 13
13 + 8 = 21
and so on.
Fibonacci poems can be written in two ways:
1) in numbers of syllables (syllable-based )or
2) in numbers of words(word-count-based).
Most people write their poems so that each line contains the number of words of its place in the sequence, and some use the sequence to determine the number of syllables in each line. Both methods follow a growth pattern giving the poem a wonderful look.
Example: Syllable-based Fibonacci poems
PROPHESY
Pass
Fail
I Wondered
Exam results near
I walk past the class to its rear
Found a place alone,took a coin from pocket and tossed
It was heads which I expected for a pass and a satisfied feeling filled in me
Call it false prophesy but this method of tossing coins along with my four senses of touch, feel, sense and hear tells what I believe to be

| Art by Mary , I have done a bit editing |
Do not open the doors when I am out
Dont go outside all alone at night
Do not open that cupboard of mine
Dont read my dairy, it is not fine
Many dont heed to that warning
Letting again the story of Pandora in
!!!!!
Epimethius and Prometheus ,the jealous brothers
Angered and upset the Gods and they never bothered
Mainly 'Zeus' the most powerful god , in conniption decided to take revenge
So created from clay , the first mortal yet beautiful women in challenge
Pandora,she was called married prometheus with her beauty and charm
Accepted the wedding gift from Zeus,a beautiful box knewing no harm
Though she was forbidden to open that box in her life ever
But her Temptation overcame restraint and finally opened the box's cover
In a moment, all the curses were released into the earth
The evils of pain,diseases and all suffering in form of tiny moths
In horror, she closed the box, scooched over it and cried in pain
Her husband came to her rescue but in vain
They still heard one more voice pleading her to open
Which they finally did as more worse sins had befallen
Out came fluttering from the box a beautiful dragonfly " HOPE"
which heals the wounds that the janky evil creatures develops
Although Pandora released pain and suffering upon the world
She also let out " HOPE " to follow them in bi -fold
We can learn from above that we humans cannot endure
Without Hope ,There exists never a cure
!!!!!
" So Learn To HOPE "

Road To The Future
Walking alone in the path
Covered in richness of snow
Feeling so cold , I carried myself slow
Pondering upon my still life
The past and the present days
Something which I can never alter
The future still holds a place there after
With that vision of a hope
A hope to achieve my lost dreams
Like the snow my heart is ready to melt thee
With the slight hug of sun shine on me
I walk past the snow covered road
Crawling myself home feeling cold
There, I found myself surrounded by warm hearts
Giving me a new hope of tomorrow
A road for me to move on ..a clasp on my fingers- my kids

Three of the friends in snow covered fully
Off they descend home walking slowly
Emily is always ready to initiate
And Smily always stands by her immediate
But Timidy is a little jealous of her mates
Since she was never looked up to nominate
The three always went together on their usual track
With Emily in front and Timidy at the back
On half the way a snap was taken by naughty Tom
For he always admired these threesome
Mainly Smily to him, her looks would kill
In his heart a special place she would fill
But for him getting near them was always a surreal
For the friendship they had is more ethereal
Though Timity is been a bit aloof for the other two
They still stay together in rivalry too
With courageous Emily always leading the way
And Smily eloquently does as she says
Timity , of course checking on them both
Not to forget Tom who is bouncing in his youth

The Mood Rings
The Mood Ring : Any guesses? Ah! Its fun for those who wants to read that mind of your spouse or your loved ones .Its a ring which contains a thermo-chromic element, such as liquid crystal(being very sensitive) so that the ring changes color in response to the body temperature of its wearer.
Hmm..Be careful! I can read your mind
I am going to disclose you a secret
Be true or else at the end you will regret
I know who you are when you browse the net
Or when you tweet in your mobile under your closet
I can see and tell you who you are
I can still read your mind any far
I have a mood ring installed under your name
Which reads the temperature of your fingers in my mainframe
When you move them to and fro on the touch pad
It sends me data reading straight from your head
So be careful on what you type or tweet
A mood ring to read your mind, isn't it so sweet ?
Note:
This concept of poem is written by Umamaheswari Anandane for " Smiley Sociology Study " done by Rachel.
If you had a mood ring like this installed in your computer,do you appreciate it ?

The Soft look from your tender eyes
The Sudden smile makes my heart fly
The Shaking little hands and legs with laughter
Telling Signs to carry you off in my arms together
The Sucking fingers to reveal your hunger
The Strong clasp of my hand by your tiny finger
Teaches So called ' the cold heart' how to love by
Thinking Slowly.......I sigh!
That Smile ,that touch ,that look
They Surely fulfill the blossom of Motherhood
There Seems no joy like sacrificing just for our little ones
Temporary Shifting to heaven happens every time we be with them
The Signs of Love
They Sing a little higher than all above

The Rain -The Shelter
REALITY OF THE RAIN :
Back to Home
I was walking back from school
Enjoying the weather moist and cool
I was covered fully from head to toe
Holding my little one and walking slow
Yelp! she cried ,"Mommy,its raining"
Though it was a harmless rain falling
To prevent ourselves from any disaster
We had to run fast for our Shelter

Pongalo Pongal
Boggi Pongal, the first day-throwing old clothes and materials out in the fire burning
Cleaning the house and decorating it with kolams indicating a new beginning
Worshiping the Sun God on the second day of the Pongal we all shout aloud
"PONGALO PONGAL" , when from the pot the boiling jaggery with rice flows out
New dresses and sweet dishes , an auspicious moment of happiness found
Chewing the pieces of sugar canes ,we sit and chat around
Third day is the Mattu Pongal where the farm animals are thanked
And harvesting cows are cleaned and then colourfully decorated
With children on their cart,they go for a fun ride in the evening
Making the roads sound in festive moods of cling cling cling
The fourth day is Kannum Pongal where family and relatives visit
Wishing each other prosperity, love and exchanging gifts
"Wishing everyone a Happy Pongal"

Any swords or knife that tears
Bears no lasting wounds forever
Clingy sarcastic words and sayings creates
Deeper wounds that heal never
Eternal fake smile and tainted hearts
Finds no plausible contentment in life
Greater than a calmed soul which reaches
Higher contentment slowly ...so
Inculcate a willingness to Love
Jack of all arts and
King of none makes
Little Tom to act like a
Monkey on a Banyan Tree
Never estimate the talent
Of others because each one exhibits
Performance in their own unique way
Quails are better singers
Rather than peacock who is still unique in its beauty
Search and embark to learn forever - our Life is
Teaching us new things in this stay on our
Unique earth that is a part of the big universe
Vacuum the dirts that lingers in our heart
Warm it up with positive hopes and thoughts
X-ray each deeds you do and say
Yearn to fill the emptiness
Zeal will fill you and be with you always

The Secret of Life
Life is full of pitfalls and thorns
Halfway through we find ourselves torn
The holes deeper
The thorns bulging thicker
Face it !
Believe to face it
Live it !
Hope to live through it
Each lesson you learn on the way
Moulds you to an archetype one day
Proud and Precious
Standing long
Head up and Strong
