Life in the backyard -the Mama's nest

 Out to the world

I went

It was a beautiful 

summer

Spring like day

My backyard

needed some care and,

Unlike other days,

I was ready to work today

I cleaned the weeds

Here and there

And the quietness was broken

As, out of nowhere

All of a sudden

A fight broke

Between two birds,

Right over my head...

They almost got me in the fight

I must say!

Well, Let me get out of your way.

I left, and almost collided with 

A hummingbird!

Hmmm I scratched my head

Busy traffic day around here...

Let me trim that tree instead.

As I started trimming small branches 

My eyes landed in a Mama's nest

Oh! 

Well, looks like my work 

Around here is done for the day!

Breathing

 I seat in here and I look at the sky

So perfectly draw by the Artist

The contrasting colors that blends

Over the crystalline waters

In this magical place I observe miracles

With each passing cloud

The scene changes, second by second,

I feel my heart beats

The blood in my veins, 

The wind on my face,

The smell of the lake...

And I breathe deeply

Wanting to freeze this moment

Defend it from the evilness of time.

A Second Chance

 365 days we go,

Round and around

The brighten sun

And we end at the exact

Same point we were

In the past year...

But the canvas 

Is once again blank

An empty page

To write a newer

And better story

Yes, if we are blessed

To open our eyes 

One more day, 

One more year, 

One more time,

Then we have been 

Given a second chance!

(Use it wisely)
