Last month, Club Mahindra ran a #holidayhaiku contest on Twitter.. I won on the 3rd day and again won a consolation prize... More than winning, the excitment of being able to relive the holidays i had taken, the journeys i had been on was the highlight of the contest.
The rules of the game:
1. Write only on Travel
2. The verse should be poetic [or something similar]
3. Fit within 140 characters [including the hashtag and CM handle]
Have managed to retrieve almost all the Holidayhaikus i had contributed....
1. A lone turtle enjoys the palace pond; hidden stairways lead
to water tanks; doors so low i had to stoop;
2. Sunset from Matanga hill; Queens bath &
Vittala temple standing tall; coracle across to Anegundi;Castle in hills
3. Markandeyan with his parents humble abode;
karaikal ammayar blessing on narrow lane; Cauvery river meets ocean!
4. Another brick on the wall;a camel hissing for I blocked its
path;river inviting us with gentle ripples,Pushkar!
5. Riding on a bike, feeling the wind on your face, simply
letting go is all that a holiday means to me!
6. Lounging feet near the ocean; chilled breezer, click click
of heritage structures; picturesque, buzzing Goa.
7. Drenched in mist in Ooty, wandering the premises of Sims
park; nutmeg pickle & jams divine;Rum balls in coonoor ...
8. Gandhi statue,Dinner at Rendezvous;Heritage walk along near
empty streets; old meets new hand in hand in Pondy!...
9.Climbing the stairs to rockfort temple; silent prayer at
Lourdes church;watching butterflies at puliancholai..
Do share your comments and feedback while i go collect the remaining ..
