It's vacation time ...

This trip was on the cards since a long time. And I had blogged about it here.

Preparations had started as early as August this year. Shopping, packing, weighing and again re-packing was all that LP and I did in the past 3 weeks.

After one and a half years, returning to India and my native town seemed like heaven... Photos and posts will follow soon once the family wedding is over and once I get some time to unwind.

Leaving you with some pictures of the greenery in my native... :)

A Tree in Anguish…

This post was picked as a WOW post by BlogAdda in the Write-Over-the-Weekend initiative ! :-)


**************

As I stand here now,
Sad, tired and alone.
Mother Nature has disappeared,
As time has flown...

They all were destroyed by you,
Brutally killed and dragged away.
Over the years I had ignored you,
And now I have no say...

Where are those days,
And where are those nights.
Together we were a family,
And now this is my plight...


They protected and sheltered all,
They bore the same - for animals and man.
But you broke the promise,
And sought to destroy our clan.

I fear the unexpected now,
God knows when I will be gone.
Should it be now or never,
But I shall never forget this dawn...

My heart feels heavy,
And my trunk feels weak.
But I need to live and be strong,
Or else the future of Mother Nature is bleak...


Oh Man ! You have done enough,
You have taken them all.
It's time for you to realize,
Else you will encounter a bad fall.

You have killed them today,
And repent tomorrow you will.
But before it is too late,
Plant more to see this forest fill.

Learn from your lessons,
Is all I can now strive to say.
Let this misery and war end here,
To mark the beginning of a new day...

Holiday Season 2012



Isn't it heartwarming when holidays are just around the corner ?

The anticipation of spending good times with family and friends... The excitement of forgetting oneselves... Indulgence in total happiness are only the beginning.

My heart races through each passing day wishing time would fly by so that it gets to engage in what it wants. This holiday season is eagerly awaited upon. The silence of long days reckons to be filled with care, love and attention. How I wish these memories could stay forever...

As the holidays approach, I get to see signs of the festival time everywhere. Take a look below -


Creativity at its best. Check out the different earrings themes for the holidays.


I liked this the best. The smiling snowman is a cute sight !


Another favourite is the snow crystals studded with a diamond.


Evergreen conifer trees lined up waiting to picked for Christmas ! :)

If you had to share 1 favourite thing of your holidays, what would it be ?
