A day to shine
with award boasts
since one’s now mine
for my blog posts
They're painful though
Navin said so
when he picked me

Thank you, Navin, for thinking my site worthy of a Sunshine Blogger Award! That is very generous of you. I appreciate your honesty when you let me know about the award and said – “I “enjoy” (sometimes they’re painful) reading your writings.” If I ever publish a collection of my ha’sonnets that quote will be on the back cover. 🙂
But that honesty is fitting with how you write and present your wonderful “Self realization, experiences & expressions and some other dimensions” through poetry on your site Navin’s Poetry. Always worthwhile reading your posts.
Now the hard part. The award has rules to follow, and if I don’t follow them within fourteen days bad things will happen to me. I apologize up front to those I nominate since this now falls on you and one of the rules is I have to nominate others.*
(*Editor’s note: Bad things will not happen to anyone if the rules are not followed within fourteen days.** That is a myth of chain letters, not blog awards.)
(**Clarification to Editor’s note: Bad things could still happen in those fourteen days, but they would be coincidental to the award, not because of it.)
Rules of Sunshine Blogger Awards:
Numbers 1, 2 and 5 are completed above. Here are my answers to Navin’s questions:
Now, my questions and nominations.
Questions: I figured I’d put them first so the nominees can decide if they want to answer them.
Nominations: For those I nominate, and it was hard to limit my selections, whether you choose to participate or not is up to you and won’t stop me from reading what you write. But it is my way of letting people know I think you have a blog worth reading.
Ain’t no sunshine
when she's not here
But I won’t whine
into my beer
Oh, what, the song?
Don’t get me wrong
it’s not that hot
