echoing parenthesis

parenthesis meets its match
in apostrophe
I listen to echoes. 

after a drab October, 
the early November sunshine 
cast golden rays on comma

another absurdity

Such an original take on the prompt. I really like this. Of course, being a Southerner, commas are my favorite punctuation mark :) Kat

Gautami,

Few days absence makes me lag so far behind,that when I read all I missed it boggles my mind,you write so well that when I read,to such a blissful satisfaction does it lead.

Take care

That was me just now. I was trying to put in my name when blogger suddenly swallowed it and post as "anonymous". Blogger hates me.
