Interested

Daily writing prompt
Who are your favorite people to be around?

Some would say interesting,

To me they are all just bling,

They want to dazzle and shine,

Their token efforts are such a bind,

You want to grab a cup of tea,

They want to show off their ability,

You came to the party,

Because you thought it’d be arty,

Now you realise it was just a ploy,

For the host to show you his new toy,

He has his admirers and content advisers,

Three swimming pools with rotating geisers,

It’s all very glam,

But who gives a damn?

All I wanted was someone interested enough to say,

And anyway how was your day?

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏

  1. That last line says it all.
    All the sparkle in the world cannot replace one simple, sincere How was your day.
    As for mine, steady and simple — the best kind.
    Namaste. 🙏🙏🙏
