Dazzling in the darkness

SDC12577

A time when headlights outnumber
The compassionate eyes seen on road
Hearts are usually found bleeding
Waiting to be crushed, while ego shadowed

A city where soothing plants are
Mercilessly cut and carved
To spread natural green beauty
Where humanity starved

A night which never experiences dark
The rush dazzles it like love
In brightness, light is nowhere to be seen
So bringing everyone together, flew a brave dove

So this was the picture from Karol Bagh metro station (where photography is illegal) for the Day 3 of the Five Photos, Five Stories challenge, nominated by a perfectionist in the armchair, Prajakta.

I would nominate the dove, Kritika for this challenge now so that the joy of being an audience for her writings, photography and sketching could be shared with all of you.
The challenge is – “Post a photo each day for five consecutive days and attach a story to the photo. It can be fiction or non-fiction, a poem or a short paragraph and each day nominate another blogger for the challenge”

A new life

SDC12525The texture of white over a canvas of blue
Delicate petals, refreshing with dew
Koels singing a melody so sweet
A cool breeze touching the giant Banyan feet

SDC12550

The texture of yellow mixed with shades of green
Like love blooming from nature so serene
Fresh is the fragrance of red buds waiting to bloom
To become a blanket of cheer, covering all gloom

Who would have thought a night so dark
Tearing the heart like the teeth of a shark
Would be erased in a moment – the scorning
By the new life, generated early morning
