There are no words
to be penned
They caught a ride
on the last gust
of wind
A one-way ticket
Emptiness settles in
I’ve tried pulling
consonants and vowels
from anywhere and
everywhere,
hoping to reunite
them with emotions
but they’ve slipped
through my fingers
only to land on a
another poet’s
blank piece of
paper

Hi All,
It’s that time again…time to put my feet up
or I should say “recess from social media.”
All is fine, but I need a breather from the computer.
I’ve taken a few in the past and I know most of us come
to the same conclusion at some time in our “blogging careers.” 🙂
I’m not sure how long, but it could last through the holidays
where I’d return in January 2015. So if that happens,
I send wishes for a Happy Halloween,
many blessings at Thanksgiving,
a wonderful holiday season, Merry Christmas
and a Happy and Safe New Year!
But before I go, I just want to thank you all again
for your wonderful visits and feedback,
for your continued support that
encourages me to keep writing from the heart.
I will always remain humble and appreciative.
With much love and virtual hugs and Cheers!
Lauren ♥
Where is it?
I can not plainly see;
just where can it be?
Why must I sit
in this brain fog
for eternity?
I stare at the page
It stares right back
How rude can it be
when I’m in a pickle
It gives me flack
while I float
through this riddle
I’m tired of searching
My muscles ache and
my aching bones groan
I’d love to escape from
this unpleasant zone
So if you see it walk by
please give me a shout
and block its way out
It’s been quite uncomfortable
living in this drought

Hello Everyone. I am Kruti Mehta, an avid blogger and upcoming author. I have been blogging for the past the 2 years on http://www.10eveningflowers.wordpress.com. While I am not able to connect through many of you, there are enthusiastic friends around me helping me out with the same. Lauren is definitely one of them.
I started blogging back in 2011 with a passion for writing. In the same year I had fantasy visions of a girl, Rhiana. They were so strong that I had to write a story on it. And I started writing a story of a young girl Rhiana Fosters.
“In the small beautiful village of Avina lived Rihana Fosters. Rhiana is a beautiful young girl who gets spooky dreams about places and people that are completely unknown to her. Do these dreams mean anything or is her mind playing tricks on her? Is someone trying to give her a message? The book unveils the story of Rhiana and her friends and their journey towards finding the answers to all these questions.”
My book is named “Fossils of Memory”. Its releasing on 20th August. You can find more details on https://www.facebook.com/fossilsofmemory.
Journey towards it:
The concept of the book is based on imagination and fantasy of dark world. The places and characters are fictional. Writing this book was not an easy journey. I wrote till 2013 January and then I had a “writer’s block”. I waited for three more months to come out of it struggling. While the entire book was complete I could not come out with a perfect climax.
In April 2013 a friend of mine stepped in to the project. Being a blogger and writer herself she offered to help me finish the book. Her name is Himanshi shahs and her blog is http://playfulsoul.wordpress.com. I gave her the space of Co-Author and she drafted the climax for my book. This is how “Fossils of Memory” was complete.
I am a first time author and your support and suggestions would be highly valued. Do let me know if you like my book

Once again, I’m behind on reading all of your wonderful blog posts.
I’ve been working on a project, which is consuming most of my time.
I haven’t written any new poems
and actually, I need to get inspired…I can’t re-post forever!
Anyway, the real busy part should be ending soon and I’ll be
visiting you again and trying to catch up a little.
To end your week, I’m sending some “calm” to soothe your “crazy.”
Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!
Lauren ♥
Dear Friends,
I need to take a little break
from blogging and maybe even facebook.
There are some things in life that need my attention right now.
So I’m going to miss you all and I thank you, once again,
for your likes, comments and follows!
I may be a little slow in doing the same,
but please know my good intentions are there..
and I do appreciate your continued support.
I don’t know how long I’ll be “away,”
it may just be for a short time,
or it could be longer,
but I wish you all much happiness and
I look forward to returning to your inspirational
writing and photography.
I’m not crazy about “good-byes”
so instead, I say “See you later,”
and I’ll close this post with a
recent acrostic I wrote from early March
for those special friends in our lives…
including online! 🙂
For who wants to be alone?
Reveling in life’s joy or weeping
In between those moments; I’ll be your
Everlasting support, a listening heart,
Never will I take you for granted, for you are a
Dear soul who I can grow with, without growing apart
Stay Happy, Healthy and Safe and I’m sending Hugs your way! ♥

I.
no thoughts come to mind
my brain is resting, wake up
my pen is antsy
II.
I’d love to know your
favorite genre when you
spend time in my world
III.
apparently, I’ve
been bitten by the flu bug,
still not feeling well
IV.
life doesn’t slow down
when ill feelings visit us
my head is spinning

Do you have a favorite?
Try to stay healthy!
“Sending only air hugs,
so you don’t get sick, too!”
🙂 🙂
Letters float with clouds in the sky
while it’s vital that I focus and drive
Inspiration has its own timing
and it’s not always perfectly aligning
I’m not penning while watching the road
yet, containing my thoughts in some crazy code
and just when I felt they were safely concealed
they drifted away on kite’s tail over field

Can you relate?
🙂
This is not meant to be
a true work of art
I’m simply sending wishes
straight from my heart
For a wonderful day today
I’m so glad it’s Friday
It took forever to arrive
but glad it came anyway
So make it the best day
Smile to people you pass
Open a door for an elderly person
Move a little slower and not so fast
Just around the corner
is the much awaited weekend
Enjoy your time with family
and many treasured friends!
HAPPY FRIDAY TO YOU ALL! 🙂
Lauren
