The India poetry circle's WhatsApp group set a challenge to its members to write prose or poetry in max 200 words on specific prompts for each day for a week from 18th January to 24th January 2026.
For 19th January 2026, the prompt was to write on the following picture:
Lovely, shy, tentative
hers is the typical demeanour of a teenager
a time when you aren't child enough, or adult enough
a time when you are confused
not sure whether you want the freedom of adult more
or the protection, reassurance and pampering of child more
You will get over it dear, they all do
your mother, aunt , grandmother
had to pass through the phase in their own time
and they made it to equilibrium eventually..
Is it more challenging for me? You ask
well, maybe with the advent of the social media
you are more under public scrutiny, with a need
to be always wearing the best, be it attire or a smile
Tough times throw up tough people
not for nothing has the good lord made you Gen Z
fearless, bold with nerves of steel!!
