An Amazing Silhouette At Dusk
A bird is back
To stop in its nest
It is dusk
Time to rest
A hush steals in
The sky turns golden
It is dusk
Come to soothen
Darkness descends
The world shuts down
It is dusk
Your oats… are sown!

‘Ghostly’ Cat Takes Shape ;)
On a trip to a beach resort, I saw a cat walking on a roof, intending to climb a tree close by.
My son is extremely fond of cats, and I wanted to take some photos to show him. But then, I failed to focus properly and the result was a series of ghostly images. However, I liked them quite a bit and hence sharing!
Earth Day
What does Earth Day mean to me?
I pondered over it an entire day
If I can feel or establish
A connect with earth
Then every day would be Earth Day
Not just for me, but for everyone
Having a terrace garden of my own
With a few flowering plants and herbs
I had a chance to observe
At close quarters
The behaviour of plants.
And it is helping me
Develop an intuition
About their condition.
“Why are the leaves yellow?
What are ants doing on this plant?
How come water is draining away?
When will this bud bloom?”
I have activated a connection
That can deepen
And help me scale and work out
Self vis-a-vis Earth
Have you thought about You vis-a-vis Earth?
Night Show
Nature’s own night lamp
Sleeping under the sky
Moon
Summer Sky
Mango, Neem, Flame of Forest – all trees in full bloom – appear in the skyline. Yesterday, coastal Chennai, India.
Light Speaks
A chandelier casts light and shadows – the effect is soft beauty!
Where does a flower grow?!
We usually see flowers growing near the top of a tree.
On a recent shopping trip, I was surprised to see one flower growing right near the base of a tree.
Here it is for you to see – and either feel surprised too or think of times you have seen a similar sight!
One Little Bird
You come to the tree
and twitter away
Exhibit some spirit
and hold me in sway
You jump about
With restless energy
And commune with your mate
in complete synergy
Watching you every morn
And hearing your song
Gives me joy
All day long
Colour Colour Everywhere
Colour, colour everywhere
Nature’s daily wear!
To the red of a rose
Your heart, don’t close
To the white of a daisy
Turn your whimsy
To the yellow of a sunflower
Bend your fervour
To the pink of a lotus
Show some fuss
To the green of trees
Don’t ever freeze
To all the colours of nature
Bow, an ardent creature!
