An attempt in gardening

(click pictures for enlarge)

I was wishing to have some flowing plants lately and were waiting sometime to head nursery to purchase the saplings. On Monday we visited a nursery on ECR to buy some rose plants and others, and brought half a dozen plants and pot and arranged it on the terrace that evening. The nursery has much rose plants that looks alike arranged for a flower show and the place itself looks greener. The red hibiscus was much striking and has an away look and structure in flower.

( first bud yet to bloom after arriving home)

We bought Kashmir and button roses, hibiscus, and jasmine and honey plant. I’m much interested looking at the buds to bloom and watering the plants and seeing the beauties is peace and pleases to mind and thus waiting to see how colorful it could turn my eyes in near future. It was something my dream of having a garden in home and I’m eager for more colorful flowers in pots to fill my surrounding.

While turning back home, we went to beach and it was deserted as well it was sun shining still to inverse the crowd. As we parked the vehicle near the water body, after long time I was seeing the waves crashing the shore, where the local boys having fun in water. There are families too playing in the water while beating the striking sun and the high tides that trying hard to rise ashore. It was the day after the tsunami warning went across the ocean due to underwater earthquake in Indonesia and it was something to see how deserted our beaches are that haven’t been closely before.

Leaf ornament

I did something with peepal leaves, while bored and it looked nice. So I hanged it on the door frame by taping the two stalks of the leaves that are fold and stitching by piece of sticks.

May the Labor Day

Labors or workers always had a great pride and place in my mind. I do see they are the great workers in this world and always deserve pride and bring profit to every one of us. Everyone does there bit of work eveny now and then, but we can’t consider it as a labor and what makes distinguish is the intension. At present the work loads have been reduced to its core at every level with the existence of machineries and new technologies, but still there’re workers work hard physically are labors.

Whatever elevation we touch with education and employment, no one can act or construct a building without labors. I have seen many labors more than those work with intelligent and I somehow know what hard work means which I lack always craved to. I don’t say hard work no needs intellect and most of them come into labor are uneducated and not well balanced in education.

I think thinking isn’t a work and everyone does it generally. But our thoughts get structure only through labors. Today many labors are sent to home frequently, because of machineries influence in large and one should not forget that those machineries are built by labors. Labors are the roots of a tree that help to grow steadfast. History says Shahjahan built the Taj Mahal, but don’t we aware there were perhaps many labors behind him to construct the monument.

One of a hard working person I admire a lot is my dear cousin brother Logesh. While doing diploma in auto mobile, he works in my uncle’s car mechanical workshop. From childhood he is very fond of vehicles and enjoys working in workshop and does whatever work we say without fail. I always believe he will stand besides me and shines in life because of his hard work and tendency.

There’s no travel or vacation without him and he’s my best company always. We do share everything and he’s very intent about me and supports me whenever I’m in need without expectation. I believe and love him next to my parents and not because he assist me every time, but just being himself and hard working. May the labors get there true price and pride for there hard work.

Silhouette parrot

The parrot was taken refrain a branch of the gulmohar one evening and kept on cleansing its body with its beak sometime. As usual I was getting breezy outside the terrace and watching birds chirping around, I saw this parrot sitting on a branch, lonely, while others flying above the sky as habitually.

I brought the camera actually to capture the mynas, that where taking refrain side by side on a branch, but before I click back, they flew away and the parrot came alone. As it was sunset taking west and I was facing it thus, captured the parrot that fell into black along the branches. Just to make an impression, I add white color to the grey background.

p.s Thought it was pleasant at present, there was something (I don’t want to say) annoyance going along, that stops me from blogging quite sometimes. I can’t avoid even when it showcase its true face that anguish and general visage that often express love and desire. I wonder were gone these thus when I was struck with phase that cause great distress and fear. I just want to say in front of these faces, but I no more bear strength to rip and I will never get peace by hurting these and expressing my emotions, but I learn every time what relationships mean through these that happens occasionally on vacations.

Golden leaf

A leaf depart from a tree
alike a vessel
it floated on the wind
before landing on my terrace

The wind blow it to the corner
recklessly, against the wall
the desperate leaf
sought my attention voluntarily

At a foot tough distance
laying like a reckless zero
the leaf reveals in yellowish
holding a scar on its surface.

The soft fragile leaf
caress while grabble in fingers
and wholly gratify
holding a whole leaf

I wish for this peepal leaf
shaped in heart-in
and cause piping
to fold in as a pipe to blow.

The light delicate leaf
inspires me to bring home
and thus I kept somewhere
to forget to remember today,
the leaf turned frailly more

It was a rough experience
touching the leaf
and due to rigid and vein
the leaf expose to golden hue.
