Another instance of patient endurance

As I wait here patiently for my turn to be called in to be interviewed- Well! The wait seems to be endless but there is a little voice saying from within- "Don't worry! It will all go well. It will be worth the wait."

All I can say, I enjoyed waiting, watching the sizzling sound of the artificial fountain outside. Not to forget the moving of palm tree leaves at its best. As I gaze upon the beauty of the evergreen trees popping up the fence; the blue skies couldn't ask for anythin better than the sun beaming at it.

I wonder how a day would be like without all these gifts of nature that od has bestowed upon us. I really also wonder if man does take time in his busy schedule to admire nature at its best, just the simple everyday events of life.

I have always admired the first siht of the sun showing

Time for patient endurance

Sometimes things don't just turn the way it usually its expected to turn; after years of toil when I look up, all I can hear from heaven is "a little more patience, my child".

When I look around, there is no one to share a smile or two, everyone seem to be busy with their own choirs. Well! There is a time for everything under the sun; maybe now is the time for me to be patient to reap and harvest in fields that I have not sown or worked for..

Maybe am not able to see what is beyond... the other side. All that is needed is a little more patience and more and more patience.

Childhood Tantrums

I was just reminded of my childhood days and couldn't help laughing at all the tantrums me and my sis created. We would play all day long till evening without eating anything. And when we could hear my mom's scooty at a distance, we would run and sit in one place as if we were not one bit naughty.
Me and my sister had our own trunks where we would keep our clothes in those days, so we used to hide small amla from neighbour's house tree in the trunk in a tumbler filled with water with a pinch of salt. Then we used to hide it from our parents and eat them when they were not around. We even got caught once for doing that.Nothing to worry, we now have our own almirahs and cupboards. :-)

Jasmine

The early day is calm and serene with the smell of mist, siren from the factory, flowers waiting to show their beautiful, vibrant faces.
Oh! How much more the watcman must have eagerly waited for the morning to come.
The birds in their nest looking forward to fly over to their source of food so that they can feed their young ones.
The essence of dewdrops on leaf tops is a gracious sight to the early bird.
As the spider webs its home in the jasmine creeper, its attempt to complete it been discouraged by passersby. It still perpetuates its long unfinished work.
I could see the moon fade away between the white clouds on a summer morning. The sun, indeed, waiting to show its glory.
Like a groom waiting for his bride, the sunflower turns towards the sun all yellow.
Who can withstand the power of nature?, it obeys no man, day comes and day goes but it is memories that stay in our minds.
What have we to offer our queen, the earth?
What have we to offer our princess, the fruit bearing plants and trees?
What have we to offer our prince, the edible plants and trees?
What have we to offer our guards, the oceans and the seas which cover the earth?

Well! It is too obvious what man has done to royal nature. The trees in the forests which are being cut down everyday is a brutal example of that.
