I looked at my right, And then all around, Seeing the little kids A truth I found I felt scared now I’m left with only two years Then I have to face life— Full of challenges and fears.. Their giggles filled my ears, Their babble I could hear, I recalled those days When, to me, only play was dear Oh— a plane! I heard a shout.. Now did that remark sound stupid to me?— I doubt!

Hello! This is my first ever post on my first ever blog....feeling excited! Let me start by telling you the reason why I christened my blog as Express "Writely". I literally spent an hour thinking about a name for my blog (Now I understand in what position my parents had been in when they were to select a name for me!). Express "Writely"- this pun truly conveys my very purpose of creating this blog - to word my mind, my thoughts and express them rightly. Here is where I can freely pen down and share what I feel, I can post all that I write- my poems, articles, stories- and let others read them. So.... let us kick-off.... ready, steady, get set, blog!
