Within a span of few minutes
I saw clouds in all hues
From white to dark grey
And of course, the beautiful crimson
And I started reminiscing
All my walks from the Sun to the Moon
Also have different shades and hues
It’s just that
I am the ‘nature’
who has forgotten its essence.

Everyday, I would see it.
Sometimes amazed by it’s structure, I would gaze at it intently for minutes and at other times, I would just pass by.
I had formed a strange connection with it. I rejoiced when leaves grew on it. I was mesmerized by its beauty even when it didn’t have a single leaf on it.
Today,
It was the loudest downpour
I ever heard
It was not water from the heaven above
But it was the roots
that had loosened their grip
It was the fall of the Tree
My eyes were moist. I went to see the tree. Touched its trunk and the branches. Also, touched the soft threads of the broken wood.
It was blissful to be in the moment with the tree. I could feel the moment.
Thanks you for teaching a lot, Tree !
Love and Joy and Bliss always…!
The seed
Sprouts into a sapling
The sapling grows into a plant
And further becomes a tree
The tree
stands tall
Swaying in the wind
Fulfilling its purpose
Bearing all the weathers
Be it the rain or Sun
One can’t decipher the feelings of a tree
It just is …present…in the moment
May I also learn
How to be like a tree
To be just present in the moment
To observe it all
All that is present
And not get overly involved in the rut
May I never wander too far from the moment and my purpose
Only if I can be like a Tree

Gather them all
Pile them up
One above the other
Take all the Embarrassment, Shame, Fear, Guilt, Vulnerability
Take them all
And hug them tight
Just the way you embrace Joy, Love, Affection, Peace
Embrace it all
Day and Night
And then one day,
You may embrace yourself…
