Not There, For Heaven's Sake!

Just as Humans constitute an entire Species...
So do Places constitute the entire Universe...

Humans...
All types of Humans...

Places...
All varieties of Places...

~~~

Places...

Places Worth Visiting...
Places Not Worth Visiting Too...

Hills...

Plains...

Beaches...

Plateaus...

~~~

OK.

This is not Geography Class...

Refrain!

~~~

Back To Places...

~~~

Beautiful Places...

Picturesque Places...

Cold Places...

Hot Places...

Even Scary Places...

~~~

With Holiday Season approaching,

Many of us plan a list of 'Want To Visit' Places...

What About 'Not To Visit' Places?

Puzzled?

~~~

What if you were asked, about a place in the world, you would never want to visit?

Well,

I have one place in mind...

But, in no way connected to Tourist Places...

~~~

A Bad Place...

Not Connected To Tourism...

A Place Which Spells Despair...

A Place Which Is Ominous...

~~~

Guess Please...

Are These Pointers Enough?

~~~

The One Place...

I Would Never, Ever...

Want To Visit...

In My Life...

~~~

A Cemetery Is A Place, I Dread!

~~~


C Spells A Dreaded Place, A Cemetery...
Emerges An Unpleasant, Dismal Imagery...
Mourn Over My Mother, I Visited In 2K9!
Entombed Her, I Pray, Everything Be Fine!
Terrorized I Stood - Infinitely Tragic Place...
Evoking Mournful Nostalgia, Straight Face...
Reminiscing A Demise, The Memory, Oh No!
Yearn To Ever Visit In The World, Never Go!

This post is dedicated to my mother, who left for her heavenly abode on September 30, 2009.
She'd died an early death at the age of 73 owing to a chain of illnesses.
Most of all, she was able to sustain with brain hemorrhage for a whole week!

This prompt came easy as it's not geographical places I would like to refuse to visit.
It's this one place, which weighed heavy on me emotionally and psychologically, as the whole instance was unexpected...
Nevertheless, I have posted my take and have carried it off with grace, in my opinion...

I would love to hear a word or two from my readers regarding my choice... :)

  6. Fear is more a feeling than a thought. It's always tougher to pen your feelings than your thoughts. In this post, you chose to do the tougher job.
