old memories

While teaching my students to recycle stuff to save the environment, I too followed that lead and came out with this. I have not written a short verse for a long time now.

Short, and sweet.
don't we recycle our thoughts and memories all the time...
Recycle and reword poems makes things somewhat more clear, sometimes.
very nice!
Poems most definitely are recycled memories...I like that!
neat idea...wow!
Keshi.
Clever! I love this.

I like this one very much - sometimes shorter is more difficult. Here from Michele's today.

I like this saying. Short, sweet, profound. I might try it, but I'm afraid I suck at poetry. A good memory might turn out horrible after I poet-ised them. Haha.
nad it is damn good ..... so many emotions in so few words

it may be short, but it's strong! good one!
Nice!
I'm afraid I tagged you with a blog meme here at stoney moss: A Blogger's Meme.
Forgive me :-)
Similarly, Wordsworth defined poetry as "emotion recollected in tranquility."
Like polishing silver. The tarnish always comes off.
Very nice!
nice idea! :D
What a neat take on the idea of recycling. So true how memories get turned over like compost, reconstituted, rearranged; and then emerge in new forms in our creative endeavours.
Indubitably!
Under these 'micturating' circumstances I concur with your decision to recycle.
Hey lady,
I awarded you with a thoughtful blogger award on my page... please drop by when you get a chance, and pick it up.
Best,

Yes.
interesting connection. I am not sure that we recycle words or memories. I just know that we have things that need to be sid and sometimes only a few words cover the emotions behind them.
Hi Gautami, I just wanted to check in and see if you have been affected by all the flooding in India. I looked at my atlas, and it looked like the areas hit hard are near Delhi. So I was concerned and I hope all is well with you and your family and everyone.
:)
I like it :)
I saw that the weather is getting really bad where you are. I hope you're o.k. and I will pray for you.
:) lovely
happy friendship day to you

I find shorts much much harder to write than "longs"
You have inspired me to look through my "notes" and see what I can recycle.
Namaste,
Frances
very true, gautami.
No Sunday prompt? Hope that means your away and escaping the heat of Dehli. On second thought about your post--what do teachers there think of students recycling their work? Is that creative or laziness?
I am watching the rain come down in India and am hoping you are okay.
Dear blogger friends, thanks or your comments and support. I am fine. I missed you all. I am very glad to be back--blogging.
Well put, Gautami.
writing haiku
the word unlooked for
finds me
Poem as recyled memories, I like that thought.
