This morning, I peered outside my window to see the world
with thin sheets of water.
The apartment I live in is West Facing , I sit in my living room and was treated to the most gorgeous sky that I have seen for a while. Myriad shades of pink, orange and blue blending together. As the colors glowed, I look bright in the mirror, as they fall on my face.
There are times, when I used to spend my time endlessly in
enjoying these precious moments – just sit in the balcony and watch.. till a
few years before. Such moments bring out the glowing sparks of creativity with
harmoniously connected images and smooth and soothing associations with the
past.
Wish I could get that carefree life once again , sooner.
Water on the leaves, water on the rim of the buildings ,
water on the roads, water on the mud..
I do not LOVE rain as they show in the films, for it is
messy & I have to search for an umbrella . Still , I like rain because I need
water.. the plants look fresh & green and also the rain carries its own
long term benefits.
And needless to say, after spending months together in the
hot sun, a rain is essential and brings back life.
The sun will rise and in the scorching heat, the water will
evaporate, however it is a special occasion, that morning when you wake up and
see a different world from what you had expected and gives you a sense of
purpose and freshness.
Okay, today’s rain put me into thoughts. Most priceless
things in life are available for free. Only that , we do not care to have them/
miss them.
I stand in the water, the foam of the wave laps gently on my
feet . I dug my feet into the sand, letting the waters wash my feet over and
over again. I saw a white shell , floating across the waters. I stand there and
watch the clouds on the horizon. I stand there unwilling to move, I had thought
of the shell, and the sea wished to fulfill a random wish that crossed my mind.
The next wave brought it on my feet. I bent and picked it up.
The apartment I live in is West Facing , I sit in my living room and was treated to the most gorgeous sky that I have seen for a while. Myriad shades of pink, orange and blue blending together. As the colors glowed, I look bright in the mirror, as they fall on my face.
Of all that I know of ,the best sight is the shimmering glow
of the moonlight in the dark blue sky and the simple darkness that allows the
stars to shine and blaze in all their brilliance , undimmed by the light of
thousand streetlights sprung out of urbanization. The velvety darkness with the studded stars is
simply a magic.
Wish I could get that carefree life once again , sooner.
