Adieu

Little white fragrant flowers bidding adieu to the setting sun.
‘See you soon!’

Aspiration

Scorching summer.
Feet firmly on ground,
Striving to reach the sky…
He stands, head held high.
A soothing shade…

Hidden Magnificence

Hidden beneath the bough… some perfect piece of art…
The Great Master’s hands toiling at work…
Color, perfection, symmetry…
Magnificence spread across heavens and earth.

Autumn Dusk

The ever captivating autumn sky…
The heavens wearing a sapphire robe… embossed with gold threads from the setting sun.

Morning Light…

The flowers glowing in the morning sunlight … fills the heart with light. ‘Let there be light’…always..

My Neighbor’s Paradise

One of my neighbors…is a colorful old man. His first love is flowers, second is flowers… and i guess his ‘old lady’ comes third! Over several decades of his stay in the villa, he have grown a garden… to be precise, one should call it a botanical garden.

This is the Bird of Paradise Flower (Strelitzia) from the old man’s paradise.
A native of South Africa, Strelitzia is commonly known as the Crane Flower.

Ruby Crystals

Lots and lots of blood-red gems, precious and tasty! Direct from the orchard.

These are Pomegranate seeds. Originally a native of Persia, Pomegranate is a highly nutritious fruit. It considered as a symbol of prosperity and ambition.

… a Search for an Identity……

It’s so difficult to introduce myself! Who am I? An answer… I have been searching for years. Is it so simple to describe oneself? ‘Am one of those who come with a social identity at birth. But, still, over the years I have tried to create an Identity for Myself. It appears, sometimes, that the entire Struggle of Life has been for an Identity. It looks elusive…. even today.

The white papery flower, i found it in an abandoned garden. Anyone knows its Identity?

The Emerald Carpet

Wish we were kids ……. rolling, giggling, and playing over this magnificent carpet!

Happy Monday!

… a Cactus!

Known as Red Orchid Crown of Thorns (E. milii) is a native of Madagascar. Wonder how it landed up in my neighborhood. 🙂 But we welcome all to our land … even if they are a bit thorny! 😉
