Nature walks have made me observant of little details which I overlooked earlier.
This tree stump a month ago was a pathetic display of ugliness to me.
A day previous, I saw this transformation.
The red leaves sprouting on the body of an ancient peepal tree indicates how the new envelopes the old and bestows it beauty and youth.
Spring is a game changer. It is the harbinger of hope and optimism and change. What is considered a discard springs up with new life and freshness.
Seasons are like the dance of the river. As the river shifts its watery body from one terrain to the other, nature too changes its garb from one season to the other and dresses anew.
Finally, the river reaches the ocean and merges in to find a new identity. Spring does the same to nature. It gives a new face, a new perspective, a new charm right after winter has bereft everything of colour and strength and courage. This is the resilience of spring which refuses to surrender to winter’s decoy of deprivation.
I once wrote a spring haiku
beginning
to end
spring
I’ll flip it over
end
of a beginning
spring
Spring is the dance of life. It’s the end of death and decay and destruction which begin with winter.
And this seasonal dance continues in its own rhythm in a cyclic order.

Fantastic observation! I am pained to see trees being cut to create parking spaces. And the same people are the loudest to protest against a proposed subway to ease traffic. People do not feel for nature, they only want to make their presence felt on certain platforms.
