Grinch – Haiku by Anita Bacha

Green Grinch

Green Grinch steals the sweets
Who pudding and sugarplums
Small heart wants the treats

Anita Bacha

How the Grinch Stole Christmas! is a children’s Christmas book by Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel written in rhymed verse with illustrations by the author. It follows the Grinch, a cranky, solitary creature who attempts to thwart the public’s Christmas plans by stealing Christmas gifts and decorations from the homes of the nearby town of Whoville on Christmas Eve. As a result of the townspeople’s response, the Grinch realizes that Christmas is not all about money and presents.

I am one of the lucky ones who has read this absorbing #storybook published in 1957 when my dad well aware of my love for books
Offered me‘How the Grinch stole #Christmas by #Dr Seuss for my birthday.

I remember with pride and nostalgia the subtle ways of my parents to encourage me and my siblings to read and write.

Christmas is not all about glitter,money and presents.

Automne 🍂 – Poésie de Anita Bacha

Autumn is the best time of the year for poets to jot down love poems inspired by the beauty and caprice of Nature

L’automne survient comme une sorcière dans mon jardin

Le ciel couvre d’un épais manteau gris le soleil du matin

Coups de balai, feuilles et fleurs s’envolent en tourbillon

Les jaillisses froides de la pluie gèlent l’air profond

Les oiseaux s’enfuient vers des cieux là-haut

Les truites se cachent sous les pierres de ruisseaux

Je regarde plein d’espérance, mon amour, la lueur de l’horizon

Qu’importe la pluie, le froid, la mélancolie de l’arrière-saison

Qu’importe l’absence, les longs jours d’attente, les nuits sans étoiles

Qu’importe les larmes, la souffrance et le mal

J’attends, amante insensée que je suis, ton retour au printemps

J’attends les baisers promis, les ébats délirants dans les champs

Je rêve du parfum exaltant de la rose sur ta peau hâlée

Les coquelicots écrasant sur ta bouche la couleur de mes désirs dérobés

Flitting Butterfly – Poem by Anita Bacha

You will never find another love like mine,

The flitting butterfly has an eye for the frail beauty of flowers,

Hovering snootily contemplating his kill;

The flowers are not insensate to the beauty of the ladylove,

Enriched in voluptuous colors,

Perfumed with the choicest fragrances,

They flaunt their bewitching loveliness,

In the offing, to drug him in a deep drowsiness;

Confused in the variety of choices,

The beau flutters his wings,

Heaves a sigh!

I love you all, my ravishing dames! he cries;

Swelling buds ready to break their lavish folds,

Waning roses ready to die,

Dancing, flirting frivolously,

Under the blueness of the summer sky

You will never find another love like mine

Tropical Twilight – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Overwhelmed with awe 


At its own beauty, the sun 


Above waves of clouds 


Rises majestically 


In the tropical twilight

Gallivant Butterfly – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

In floral bower 

Blue gallivant butterfly

Flutters loftily

Kissing lilies as he flies

To vanish in wilderness

If I were a flower- A Poem by Anita Bacha

If I were a flower,

If I were a flower for the joy of being a flower,

A leaf for being a leaf,

If I were a stem,

If I were a leaf and a stem to dress up a flower,

If I were a flower that you will place on your heart,

If I were all sleek and purple petals,

Petals to cover the nudity of a flower,

If I were a flower that you will place on your heart,

If I were the eyelids for the delight of being the eyelids,

The lashes for being the lashes,

If I were the eyes,

If I were the eyelids and the lashes to cover your eyes,

If I were a tear,

A tear running down a cheek,

A tear that loses itself in the lips, 

If I were the lips that caress a flower,

If I were the lips and you were a flower…
