Vacation?

The dam of calm has started showing cracks lately, hope seeping out slowly.

Need cement of patience and sensibility to mend it, if we want to continue surviving.

Can't let "wants" surpass the "needs" right now, surely a vacation less important than safety.

Stay home, stay safe, keep the head firmly on your shoulders, for we must help those who "Have"to venture out for us daily.

Summer bloom - 8

Hydrangea.

Little flowers clustered in a ball of colours, bringing the Summer alive with their pastel palette.

Ornamental oranges

Mistaken identity,
🍊 Oranges, not lemons!

Winged Visitors

Red-billed blue Magpie.


What joy the couple gave!
When they came visiting.
In the times of social distancing,
accepting the offering of strawberries.

Learning

Learning to listen, without any words being said,
and watching the world, without being there.

Learning to feel plethora of emotions, without being touched,
and reaching out to others, without being physically present.

Learning to spend dateless, day less weeks and months,
and holding on to the memories being made at all hours.

Learning to prioritize simplicity over complexity,
and being deadly calm in the midst of a storm.

Learning to love and fall in love, all over again,
With the ones I always loved.

Learning to respect and admire nature and its beauty,
and pledging to take care of it in the future.

Caught in a loop, in the never ending cycle of learning.
Learning one step at a time to restore sanity.

Will learn well,
and this too shall pass.
