A table

A table that I never got to use. A cabinet where I never got to put books. A friend of mine had something similar and she used it profusely. I used an old rickity table. I got to use it, stained with oil stains and turmeric. A last life before it was trashed. That style of table is called secretary table....onethe one I coveted, hung from the wall at waist length. Nah, no longer interested..

My favourite to eat but can I really??

A beauty that needs to be out for practical purposes ... Newly mulched lawn ( mulching done by yours truly) is mushrooming mushrooms. I do wish they were edible:)

Perfect spring

Seeing yet another death.

S/he had fallen off freshly off the tree. The merry munching of young spring shoots still in mouth. Body was still warm and pliant as if sleeping but no heartbeat. While trapezing through so many wires, guess stepped on a live one. Eyes lifeless. luckily no passing car had flattened it beyond recognition. I had job to do. Of carfully lifting god's one of the awesome creation and putting it where nature and not motorized human will take care of it. Gently lifting it, I kept it on bed of grass and dry leaves. Sighing deeply, my walk tired legs walked the remaining path, my mouth still chanting "mahamritunjaya mantra" .

Working tirelessly like an ant

Yes, thats me at the moment. Trying to put my one foot after the other. "This too shall pass".

Procrastination is I hope some fleeting mantra

Paint pens dry and expire white coloring pages yellow and fade notebook fatten with open pen, thoughts unwritten.. and I stare in space or complete the never ending list of to do... my to do list slowly fading away like a swiftpassing cloud.

So I finally started this guy again

I was never gone, I was patiently waiting for you, he said.

Reslience

A plant,a weed..growing vigorously in the middle of tar road. a beautiful exampleof miracle and resilience.. My one of the first lessons in the wild.
