Mother Nature

The beauty
Of Mother
Nature is
For us
To see

But I'm
Wondering
About the
Dead and
Departed

Are they also
Able to see
And savour
Her pristine
Beauty?

(Theme could also be Introspection / Observation; thought about those people who've left the earth for their heavenly abode; are they still able to enjoy the bounties of the earth from someplace else, invisible to our naked eyes?)







She

She stands
Out as a
Cut above
The rest
As she is
The very
Best of the
Best

Here's another one:

To stand out
From the rest
You have to be
Better than the
Best

(Theme could be Perception / Appreciation / Motivation / Inspiration and Success)







Subtle

Those
Subtle
Feelings
That
Man
Gives me...
Makes me
Think that
He fancies
Me :-)







Never

Never
Take
Life
For
Granted

What
Will you
Do if
Life
Starts
Taking you
For granted?

There Was...

There was
This girl
At the
Airport

I kept
Looking
At her

While
Admiring
Her
Divine
Beauty, I
Kept asking
God:
Why didn't You
Make me like her?

(Not only this girl, there are many such girls I've encountered in my life in all sorts of places like schools, colleges, shopping malls, tourist buses, etc and seeing their beauteous looks, I've often asked God, why did He leave me out of His beautiful garden of wonderful women? ;-) Though, it's a miracle that even after 16 years of marriage, my hubby still finds me Beautiful, even though I've never seen myself as beautiful but just Presentable enough. I guess, the difference in our opinion is to do with the perception that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder; so what I may see as beautiful, others may not and vice-versa. That's a lot of beauty talk for now. Bye for Now, Aparna :-)
