Hidden Shadows

As I see a fledgling bird learning to take its flight

Perched on a branch swaying in gently breeze

Trying to explore its neighborhood of delicate twigs

Scared it might slip, yet taking the leap with courage

Knowing that there is someone to hold on tight if it falls

 

As I take my walk under the grey clouds in evening breeze

Laden heavy with rain that is about to fall

I see a flock of pigeons in shades so varied flying

Forming various patterns enjoying the amazing weather

And the freedom with no fear of blowing away

 

As I sip my evening tea watching the rain

Enjoying the melody of the birds song flying back home

So calming like the waterfront with the mountains in the backdrop

With the glistening lake in the warm sunshine

Lightens up the mood so calm and refreshing

 

Strong and firm like the mountain

Calm and relaxing like the lake

Being there when you need

Freedom to be your real self

Who else can it be..but for my Friends forever and everJ.

 

To all my friends..Happy Friendship’s dayJ!!

This is my FIRST Blog and i never thought i would start with such a topic. But i think its worth a read..so sit back and Enjoy:-)... Life is such a wonderful teacher that teaches us a whole variety of lessons although with a complete mix of emotions. No matter how hard we try there is always a perfect timing where all things fall in place just like the various pieces of a puzzle. Today there was a simple but mysterious experience which I came across. It so happened that I had to make a few payments that was important and to be closed at the earliest. Normally I manage my finance by allocating them appropriately before hand along with some additional reserve.But today I had exactly the amount that was required for the payment and no additional reserve. I kept on thinking about how to manage in case any unexpected expense comes before me. A most unexplainable incident happened exactly at this moment of my though...

On a Rainy day

On a Rainy day, the morning seems so grey With rain drops playing a new tune as they spray Making the birds sing a new song that makes me sway Enjoying the music to start a new day On a Rainy day, as I walk along the shaded way With a canopy of trees sheltering the wild flowers as they play Amidst the cool breeze, I see the reflection of the scene above in full display Making me feel like I’m walking among the clouds far far away On a Rainy day, as I sip my coffee watching nature’s play Cleaning the lush green leaves and spraying the flowers so bright To bring out the True Colors within making me feel so light Reminding me to enjoy every moment Life brings in Like a little bird’s First flight. -        Nirmala B.J

PARIS…Part One A place of beauty, architectural marvels, fantastic cuisines, unique pieces of art, choicest place of many great artists is in short the place PARIS . Its my pleasure to share my experience of visiting the city of Paris. I had been to Paris during the Christmas vacation. It was a most awaited trip filled with all enthusiasm and interest. I took a train from Baden, Switzerland to Basel. I had to travel via a TGV which was also a first time for me. With some initial hiccups and a journey of almost 5 hours I reached Gare’ De Est station in Paris. I was received by my friend who was to join me in my trip. After having a small dose of coffee we took the network of sub way trains to reach our destination Gare’ De Lyon wherein I had booked the accommodation in Hotel Lyon Bastille. It was my second stinct with the subway metros and tube stations after the one in London. It brought many pleasant memories of my visit to London some time ago. The subway metros are all well connecte...
