Waterfall on mountain slope, Flowing with might and strength On the rocks, into the valley, Paving way through rugged terrain.. @chandrimadebi It’s been days that I went into the verdant mountains and valleys as the hillside of Landour, Mussoorie is experiencing heavy rainfalls alongwith severe landslides and thunderstorms, So, one fine morning I finally decidedContinue reading “Viridescent hillside: Landour, Mussoorie!!!”

Scintillating clouds: Mussoorie skies 2
Sunset painted the sky with colours, Beautiful canvas, brilliant hues.. Paint our lives, O Almighty!! With colours and blessings and love multitude… @chandrimadebi Sunlight scattered and diffracted and reflected too, Creating vibrant canvas in the high skies; And the clouds passed through.. @chandrimadebi It was one busy evening while we were returning back home and theContinue reading “Scintillating clouds: Mussoorie skies 2”
A lamented realm!!
As we celebrate World Environment Day,Ecological Restoration they say;Busy in conferences and meetings today,Making this day nice and gay!! Busy making policies, since 1972,Year passing by, it’s 2022;How many more occassions do you need,To understand, enact and rebuild. And temperature soars highAir conditioners sway,Purchasing drinking water;Oh!! loadshedding again today. While we are discussingAnother wilderness isContinue reading “A lamented realm!!”
A mystic mountain road!!
A distant mountain road,On other side of the valley;Covered in mystic clouds,Surrounded with forested alley. It called me from afar,To explore the unexplored;I believed and stepped forward,And my aspirations soared!! Followed the trails on the hills,Rocks and boulders, so bold;Thickets and bushes and thrills,Until I reached the road. And I went along the mountain road,Didn’tContinue reading “A mystic mountain road!!”
Clouds in the sky!!!
It was an usual day during lockdown and I was gazing at the sky saddened by the agony of lost lives and pain due to pandemic. Suddenly, these clouds appeared and instilled new hope and faith in me.

Nature’s first green is gold!!
Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. By Robert Frost With the changing seasons these evergreen trees always add charm and continueContinue reading “Nature’s first green is gold!!”
My Shadow and me!!
Sometimes losing trail in woods is a retreat. Few days back, I was walking in a forested area and lost track, and to my surprise I was standing alone with my shadow beside me. I wanted to click few pictures of my omnipresent shadow. But please be careful while walking in the woods alone causeContinue reading “My Shadow and me!!”
Confluence of sky and the mountains!!
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held highWhere knowledge is freeWhere the world has not been broken up into fragmentsBy narrow domestic wallsWhere words come out from the depth of truthWhere tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfectionWhere the clear stream of reason has not lost its wayInto the dreary desertContinue reading “Confluence of sky and the mountains!!”
Red Coral Tree Flowers !!!
Up in the mountains,I was missing the sea;The clear blue waters,And the red corals beneath. ***** But thank you O lord!!For showing me;the clear blue sky,And I barely miss the sea. ***** Thank you O lord!!For the red Coral Tree flowers,High above in the mountains;Now I barely miss the red corals in the sea. *****Continue reading “Red Coral Tree Flowers !!!”
An ode to the Swallows!!!
Swallows flying high,Up above in the sky;Swooshing through the mountains,Diving in the valley deep;To catch insects swarming in the air,with a velocity steep. ***** Agile and alert are your actions,Random turn sometimes;I couldn’t follow your flying course,Lost track many times!!! ***** Off you fly from your cozy nest,Into the trees surround;Next moment you are outContinue reading “An ode to the Swallows!!!”
