《MUSINGS.. A collection of poetry》Colour, colour, what colour?
Advertisement
"Colour, colour, what colour do you choose?"
"Colour, colour, what colour do you choose?"
Chanted the group, loud in unison,
Bubbling with excitement, ready to run.
They had chosen 'purple' as colour of their group
If catcher says any else, "No", they would whoop.
Steadily, with jumpy steps, across they reach,
From one side of the playground, to other where the catcher is;
The catcher stands waiting for the group to come near,
So he could guess their colour, and catch 'em as they run afar.
"Blue", he started
"No", they shouted,
"Green", he tried again,
"No", they screamed again,
"Bwack", he prattled,
"No", they giggled.
"Red"
"No"
"Pink"
"No"
"Purple", he found it!
"Yay", they screamed lit.
Then, in frenzy they ran, towards the point they came from,
Bumping into each other, their hearts beating as a drum;
The catcher tail behind, sprinting to catch one,
He clawed at their last runner, so finally he won.
The game continued with the new catcher,
The one who got caught by the previous catcher;
And so they played in glee, until it was dark and dusky,
They laughed and screamed, until their voice became husky.

Have you ever played the game, "Colour, colour, what colour?"
As a kid?
Yes?
No?
Well, that's a fun game we used to play as little kids. In this poem, I've tried to sum up the wonderful essence of the silly game and how little things bring infinite joy in the kids' world. I hope you liked it.
Comment and share the love.
Take care. Stay safe.
Love and peace✌

Covenant Sinners: The Origin of a Demon Queen
Demon-slayer knight Hector Aeronwen became an enemy of all humankind after saving a dying half-demon girl out of pity. Little did he know, his impulsive action had forever changed the course of the world and the fates of many. This is the story about Hector's desperate quest and the beginning of the demoness whose destiny is to shake the world to its very foundation. Author's note: At the risk of spoiling too much of this story, I want to reveal a bit about the core idea behind this work of fiction. I set out with the idea to write a story in the perspective of the second in command of a demon lord, which then would be followed up with large scale kingdom buildings and warring states. But then I asked myself: what past do they have between them for the Demon Lord to have so much faith in her second in command, and for him to be so loyal to such a horrible being? So this is my attempt at writing the origin of those two, who, while hated by all races in the world, still have each other as the only confidant to entrust their life to. If you are like me and want to see where this premise, with a vague destination in mind, will lead to, please have a read and give me your valued feedback!
