Abandoned tree

And what a life this ageless tree hasWaiting for the snow to freeze it’s exteriorAwaiting the blazing sun to nourish it’s swaying leavesWaiting for the trekkers for solitary picturesAnd ultimately waiting for death for decades. Picture taken in 2018, please travel responsibly and safely.

Filtering sunlight

Let love enlighten your soul.Let the sunshine brighten your day. Picture taken in 2018, please care to travel responsibly and safely

Pandemic life musings I

Maybe at this time, we can seek the brightness within.Who knows the outer vibrancy might come to us soon!

Travel haiku – Uttarakhand, India

And when this distanceOverwhelms usWill you build a life with me?And enable me to forge this world with you. Caption taken from my poem “Will you?”

Travel musings – Uttarakhand, India

Our souls are fashionedOut of the same stardustAnd the same emptinessResides in our hearts So will you fill my desolationWith your kindnessAnd allow me to fill yoursWith my happiness.

Travel musings – Mussoorie, Uttarakhand, India

Flaring with lifeYou made me smileYour ceaseless passionMade me beamIn success and in failureWe twinkled And now, while I lie motionlessSpeechlessly glimpsing youIn my last momentsYou continue to make me smile Caption taken from my poem “Your Smile -II”
