Returning Back to Nature

Today I came across a comment that said: "You can own anything in the world, but know that you are going to leave it all when you die." This made me ponder over the reality that we actually never came to this world with anything. 

Even if a person was born with a silver spoon as the saying goes, a blink of an eye is enough to change a destiny like the case of the Japanese man who just of recent found out that he got switched at birth and was actually born to wealthy parents.
 
If this is so then it behooves us to continuously endeavor to give back as much if not more than what we are taking from the earth and it is on this note that I have chosen the following poser:


Have you ever put a plant into the earth and seen it grow into something beneficial to humanity? What does it really take to plant a tree or any plant for that matter. This is one of the reasons why we have an environment that keeps degrading because we have failed to inculcate the habit of giving back to nature. Even life is a cycle whereby our bodies decompose and we  'go back' to our origin.

It is thus incumbent on you and me, him and her to try to reverse this 'dangerous' trend. It's never too late to do this. Plant something today!!!

Ramblings

So many thoughts scattered  In the ocean  That is my head I do fear for this wayfarer. And here I was thinking  I was normal  Uuntil I met you. Shattering the glasses  My assumptions  Opened the door  To the coastline of reality. Smashed to pieces  My fears  Like angry bull  In a China-shop I'm now bathed in silkiness  Serenity  Confidence my new skin I wear  Like crocodile  Or his cousin once removed,  The snake. I'd have been kidnapped  By heart and mind  If not for Providence  Who sent Guidance to guard Inhibitions have been very strict  Leaving no room for idleness  To cajole me into reverie  To send into coma of self-delusion. This journey must be concluded  To it's end which is a known  Unknown Haidarwali 201506111756hrs

A Midnight Encounter

You see when it starts to rain, the soul that luvs the rain lights up with an electric fervor! . I close my eyes and listen to the musical lyrics of raindrops drumming upon the rooftop, which pours down the drains. . I sit against the windows and watch countless slates slash against the pane and flashes of lightening streak across the reddened midnight sky. And then... . POW! CRACKOW! A blasting blare of thunder makes me shudder, almost jumping out of fright. . And then gradually the rumbling rolls away like a cartwheel leaving me with the sound of dripping raindrops like a collection of pattering feet tapdancing. . A cool breeze sifts in carrying with it the scent of wettened earth and the promise of a sweet and sound night's sleep. . Haidarwali 201805250053hrs
