Happiness Is a Mini Break

1. What a creative use of the prompt, Vidya! And to think there’s not one preposition in it! 🙂

   1. Thank you Corinne! I enjoyed doing it! But hey, I did do the exercise in the Write Tribe post!

2. Mini-breaks are great! Especially in the monotony of life and well, those extra-long to-do lists {which keep growing longer by the minute!}

   Loved the creative take on the prompt without the use of in-on-at! 😀

   1. True, Psych! Thank you! By the way, loved your article in the Australian mag! Solo travel rocks!

3. At first I thought I had gotten the prompt wrong. Then realised you’d put your unique spin on it. Yes, we must do this. More regularly than we do now <3

   1. 🙂 I try all the time! Thank you Shailaja!

4. Vidya, I too had to go and check the prompt again! Is it with or without the prepositions? 🙂 Then I realized it is after all your blog I am reading – full of creative ideas and interesting reads 🙂 This was a fun poem to read, as a follow-up to your other blog about Lalbagh adventure! Wonderfully done.

   1. Not one for the rules, Beloo. Not for these things, anyway! Glad you enjoyed it!

5. Gosh this confused me too….especially since I just finished my own post for the prompt!
   This is brilliant though 🙂

6. Brilliantly penned. Loved your idea of ditching the list to spend time with your loved ones.

7. Love the idea of a mini-break. What a fun poem! Loved it! A great use of the prompt.

8. Exceptional..!! 🙂

9. Nothing like Home Sweet Home, our personal space defining our individuality. Sometimes, we need our cosy comfort for ME time. Love it, Vidya

10. What a lovely poem and no prepositions, I did not miss them till you said you didn’t use any. Then I went back and read it again.
    Life is full of simple pleasures, if only we stop and enjoy.

11. We have to break the repeated routine we often find ourselves doing daily. I enjoyed reading your lovely poem and thought it met the challenge nicely.

    1. Thank you so much, Michelle! I just sent you an email. Could you please see and respond?

12. Wow! That’s a lovely poem in 100 words and yes, I can do with a break too!! 🙂

13. Mini breaks are essential.. and if you are living with family there’s no need of anything else 🙂 beautiful write.

14. Hi Vidya,

    Five star rated relaxing times
    Let’s see if this rhymes
    A mini-break
    Relieves the ache
    Happiness is here
    It’s magically clear.

    Thank you for your poetry
    It pleases me 🙂

    1. Taking a bow, Gary. As always, seeing you makes me very happy! I loved your verse too. Short, sweet. 🙂

15. Great way to use the prompt Vidya. And yes no prepositions 😉 Totally agree with the line – Home sweet home is heaven. Yes, as compared to the fatigue associated with traveling and sight-seeing in the sveltering heat, I would anyday prefer blogging or relaxing at home. 🙂

16. Wow!! What a lovely take on the prompt! Yes we all need a mini break 🙂

17. You have dropped ‘in’ , ‘at’ and ‘on’ and yet so creative. Once is awhile we should ignore our ‘to-do-list’ and enjoy.

18. Cute poem!! And, some days, you seriously do want to just chill!!

19. Nice poem vidya!!!
