Bionaire, Monkey Man, My standing fan, One night-stand :), Sleepless, Sunday 160, Tireless companion
He stands right there
Blowing cool air
Throwing a stare
Giving me the scare
It ain’t fair
Me waiting in despair
While sleep, I spare
My fan and I; What a pair!
*I was thinking of what to write for the Sunday 160 VERY LATE last night… and in my otherwise silent room, I heard a hum… It wasn’t my noisefree A/C.. It was my FAN! And there! I knew what to write about… :)*
**Posted for Sunday 160 hosted by Monkey Man! Check out what the other writers had to say in 160 characters… This place is a COOL melting pot of creative juices!! :)**
How I write, is mine...How you read, is yours 
Inspiration comes in many guises. But I have been scared out of my wits in the dark of night by the fat-headed guy standing at the foot of the bed, humming, so I can see how you found yours.
I hear you, Patti!! 🙂 It was like my fan was screaming to me to write about him! I simply HAD TO! But then I am glad he inspired me… sometimes, the oddest of objects/feelings/emotions can be the most amazing muses 🙂
OH I LOVE POETRY !!
Hope you enjoyed this bit though… And thank you so much for appreciating my work… your comments are invaluable!
Have a gorgeous week ahead!
Visually inspired writings are some of the best….even when they are last minute. Thanks for being a part of my Sunday 160.
I concur!! 🙂 When nothing seems to make sense, suddenly, even the most unusual objects seem to make most sense! 🙂
Thanks for your thoughtful comments…glad you liked my work…
I love and really enjoy participating in your 160! It keep my mind alive and alert! Thanks for initiating such a challenging meme..
Have a great week ahead!
Check out my (wo)manifesto: http://robotcupcake.wordpress.com/2010/08/09/fat-feminist-artists-together-a-womanifesto/
Woww…this looks really interesting. Alexis!!! Very interesting and exciting!
Is there an affiliation in New York ?
Have a great week! And best luck with the wo-manifesto! Seems like a brillaint idea… (many hugs)

Yes, me too… Need to hear that low steady hum…
Glad you enjoyed this one, Brian… Its funny how we get used to those otherwise insignificant sounds… 🙂

This was great! Loved the twist.

Anyway, thank you so much for your thoughtful comments… and I am so glad you enjoyed this little poem 🙂 Your encouragement is most appreciated!

I read the title with a raised eyebrow, but once again saw a playful side of you as you wrote about your fan. Good one 🙂
Phhheewww…Finally, someone raises an eyebrow at the title!! That was absolutely my intention !! 🙂 Although.. I should’ve written it as “One night-stand” 😉
Glad you liked this one, girl…and thank you for your lovely words.. they are most appreciated!!!
Have a great week ahead (love and hugs)
LOL…this is awesome and made me smile, just goes to show that we can write about anything and everything… This was so original and I think you are so clever!! Hope your weekend was a good one…and the coming week even better. I love you girlfriend oxoxoxoxoxxo {{{Hugs}}}
Glad it made you smile, Amanda… I was totally clueless on what to write for my 160… and was just staring ahead, when I caught the fan staring back at me! And then, the rest is history 😉 Words just flew to my mind… heheheh
Thank you for your encouragement, sweetheart…your continued support is like a backbone to me!! Thanks once again…
My weekend was ultra good! My husband took me shopping (without me asking him to)!!! I am not really a shopoholic really…but I enjoy it nonetheless! He also treated me to some awesome lobster entree… good ice cream …so, all in all, a fantastic weekend! Which is why this huge delay in reply… Sorry about that.. 😦 But I know you will understand…that’s what makes you so adorable! MWAH!
How was your weekend? FUN FUN FUN I hope 🙂
Have a great week!! Looking forward to reading a lot from you..
LOVE KISSES AND HUGS!!!! Luv ya totally!!!
Oh my…this was so much fun to read..but must admit been there…felt that. 😉
hahahah…glad you enjoyed this one, Charles… and thanks for your kind words.
It’s quite amazing how the simplest of objects can inspire us..isn’t it? And as for the sleeplessness…phheeww…an annoying problem, that one! 😉
Have a great week ahead, my friend.. Take care
lol…good one.
hehehe…thanks a bunch, K!!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Have a great week ahead! 🙂
*Smile*
🙂 Right back at ya! With a few winks too 😉 😉
Glad you enjoyed this one…
Enjoy a fabulous week ahead!
Yes to your comment above, you first have to think like a “muse” in order to ‘hear’ the song being sung. but no problem here you are gently inspired — a muse – a poet, a delight.
Lovely 160,
Joanny
Aww..thank you so much for your kind words, Joanny! I am delighted by your comments!! I really value your appreciation towards my work…
This 160 really came out of the blue! Just a bit of frustrated staring at the fan did it! 🙂 But no complaints at all.. Besides, I cannot really sleep without the hum of that fan anyway 🙂
Glad you enjoyed this one..
Have a gorgeous week !!! 😀 (much love)
Quite clever and original… Been there. As for the sound of the fan, need to hear it at night in the summer. Kavita, excellent writing.
Absolutely, Adam! That fan and its hum is what helps me sleep peacefully 🙂
I need it even in winter..yes, even the New York winter!! Fan + heater = blankets and cuddling! 🙂
Thanks for your kind words and encouragement… I am very glad you enjoyed this one…
Have a beautiful and inspiring week ahead!! (much “cool” love)
oops….haha what a nice way to write about a fan. I didn’t even bother to see the picture till the last line. Great twist 🙂
heheheh…glad you enjoyed it, Asmita… thanks for the sweet comments… good to know you were “hooked” to the words:)
Have a fabulous week ahead! (loadsa hugs)
Are you sure that you were writting about electric fan and not a fan in your dreams.
Art, poetry and words have confusing meaning for science students.
I read a few of your creations. These aroused interest in me for poetry, in an otherwise non artistic surgeon.
Keep it up
Dr. Madan Goyal
hehehe… Thanks for your kind and encouraging words, Dr. Goyal… Yes, I was indeed writing about a real fan, and it was not a dream 🙂
I desperately wanted to write something that night, but was experiencing a writer’s block… and while fretting over this fact, I was just staring at my fan, and it was staring back! And there!! The writer’s block vanished 🙂
I am very glad you enjoyed this piece… And I sincerely hope you enjoy writing as well… it will be a very relaxing break from your already amazing work!
Surgery, I believe is an art by itself (it’s much more than science anyway… it’s a lovely mind-hand coordination, that only talented persons such as yourself, can achieve).. Being a science, math and business student myself, I personally feel the closeness of art and science… it’s brilliant!!!
Happy writing, and have a great and fruitful week ahead!
LOL!!! 😉
Enjoyed it , eh!?!?! Me happy!! (smiles)
Have fun, girl!! Have a great week!
-many hugs
Kavita, you have a devoted fan!
Ba-doom-tish!
Thank you. I’ll be here all night… 😛
hahahahah…you ROCK, Tony !!! I am in love with your cheery love-filled comments!!! Thanks, friend!! I am your ardent already (and here, I will begin to stare at you! ;)) –[drum roll]
Take care, and have a FANTABULOUS week!
You can never know what or who’s going to inspire you! 🙂 Love the poem, very visual and simple, well done Kavita!
teeheehee…you are so right, Lua.. the things that inspire us can be the most ordinary …but the most lovely too!!!
Thank you for your insightful words, girl… I am very glad you enjoyed this poem….
Have a wonderful week !! (many hugs)
Ha! Wonderful. I was like, oh no! But the ending twist was a joy. Well done. Great 160, Kavita. Very fun.
heheheh.. Glad you enjoyed it, Chris! And I am pleased to see you raise an eyebrow to the title! 🙂 Thanks for the concern… it was very sweet of you…
Have a fabulous and peaceful week ahead! 🙂 (much love)
If only those blasted fans could do a better, quieter job of cooling us off.
Aww…it’s that hum that gives me a blissful sleep though ! 🙂
Mom used to wake me up by switching off the fan! I was THAT used to it 🙂
Thanks for stopping by, and for your comments… Have a great week!!

Even fans want attention – maybe that’s why they are so noisy
Clever 160 my dear

Have a fun-filled warm week, Doraz… what’s it now? Mountains? Lake? Lemme know…

Fabulous!!! I live in the south…in a mobile home…I have a love affair with my fan:) I NEVER sleep without her! I laughed out loud at this one! Just wonderful 🙂
