A Gentle Blue Hyacinth

A prose-poetry inspired by the beautiful picture (titled Blue Hyacinth)  Paul put up on his site. Click here to look at his brilliant work. You are truly gifted Paul…thank you so much for letting me use this picture (it’s my favourite from the recent set you uploaded)! My words may not completely justify the beauty of what you have captured but I hope my appreciation has traveled a little way towards you in the form of this poem!

“The curse of Life Sciences: We are busy studying life and we don’t even realize when it Passes By!” – Archit (click here to read his blog)

That hour of the day when you are busy wrapping up your work and rushing through the last minute things…signing the required documents, going through some others, and probably planning the next day before you shut down the computers and head out the door, relaxed!

If we were Strolling Together (2)

I would first greet you with a warm smile as I am happy to have met you…I’m always happy to have company when I walk…I can talk out loud and the words won’t be lost in time…people won’t stare at me for talking to myself…and I can get some perspective from you on certain things.

While

Sometimes we are taught the simplest of lessons by the commonest of sights. And yet, we fail to acknowledge them. We speed away in our cars and bikes and look at the traffic, instead of these beautiful sights. We walk right beside it but complain not of our ways, but of its faults!

And the Winners Are…

So…I have thought carefully about who I want to nominate for the Liebster Award…

I took time because well, most blogs I follow are by amazing writers who have been blogging for a long time (at least the number of people following their blog suggests that!) and I think they must have already received this award a few times by now. Since the award is for new bloggers, I thought I should take some time to read new blogs and nominate those I love…And then finally, after having read over 20 new blogs, I decided on nominating the following bloggers (I don’t know if these guys have received this award already…but this is my way of saying thanks for entertaining me with their posts and that I find them amazing!).

Liebster Award

Awesome!!! 😀 This means so much…Thanks Diksha who writes at A Writer’s Cauldron for nominating me. With a smile on my face and a cheer in my heart, I accept this award. And of course, the promises of writing better and keeping you entertained through my posts…I wish we could strike a pose together (after all pictures are THE THING these days…if you haven’t clicked a picture and displayed on some social networking site, you haven’t done it at all)!!!!

Anyways…I am humbled. Just over 40 posts old and I get appreciated for what I put up here. Cheers to all those of you who have received the award already and to those who are yet to receive it, but certainly will. Keep writing…

Belinda, who writes at busymindthinking posted a few pictures clicked by her son Ethan for his photography class here. With her permission, I borrowed this beautiful picture for this post. Ethan, you are a genius 🙂 Hope you have a fantastic journey as a photographer…

With the autumn sun burning my skin, I feel barren within.

If I had Boat

If I had a Boat…

I’d look at the waves gently tossing it as they go by…I’d watch as it resisted the urge to float away.

If We Were Strolling Together (1)

I think best when I am walking around. I think free when I am talking aloud. Unless I hear myself saying it out loud, I am not sure about what I am thinking. So as I take a Stroll around the lawn, if you were with me, I would be telling you about this today.

A Cell is a Broken Radio!

I usually don’t write more than one post a day but today my brain is a fertile land on which there are sprouting thoughts of all kinds. Different categories of my still developing blog are shouting for my attention today. Maybe this thought process itself demands a separate post! But anyways…here’s what I am thinking about right now. A little Sciency…

The current model is true only till it is proven wrong.
