Beautiful morning

Today morning was the most beautiful I have experienced in Bangalore. I had gone out to throw garbage J and I liked the atmosphere so much that I decided to continue walking and enjoy the morning air. There was a pleasant chill, some birds chirping in the background, the ones that we get to hear when we are in forest areas and silence. There were dry leaves now wet because of rain strewn all over the roads and it felt nice to walk crunch crunch crunch over them. J There were lively people taking morning walks with their dogs and the lone santro driving school car moving precariously around the block like a toy car that’s losing its battery. I got to see a few scenic views and I missed my camera. Let me describe one. On the backdrop of a bright blue sky, perched atop a leafless tree was a kite/eagle/hawk, with a white head and he was drying his brown wings. Somehow only the top of this tree was highlighted by sunlight so the fair branches were shining against the blue sky. It was awesome. Some couple of days back, I think Friday, the evening skies were very scenic, the clouds looked artistically spread out. Its all been captured in my memory, I guess I should get a film soon. Like last year and the year before that, its that season when Bangalore really looks beautiful with its colourful flower laden trees and clouds that look like color dropped into water. Appreciate it whenever you find time…
