My Reflections and Expressions
5-07-2022 Last week was a very wet week. Sunday, it did not rain much but yesterday it was just pouring and today it was as if the skies had opened up ! There are problems if there is less rain and problems if there is more. Some are natural and other created by us. In… Continue reading EVERYDAY MOMENTS (#SOL-2020)
28-06-2022 I am enjoying the walking exercises by Lucy Wyndham-Read every morning. I started in the first week of May. Along with Pranayamas, they are a good beginning to my days. As the dawn breaks, I hear birds calling to each other. Construction work is going on behind our house. Every morning I hear someone… Continue reading Everyday Moments (#SOL-2022)
21-06-2022 We are in the fourth week of June and the monsoon season has not really started. What we are getting now seems like the pre-monsoon rains. But it rained and rained yesterday and was raining late into night. Today is very cloudy. It is nearing 12 in the morning and is so dark I… Continue reading EVERYDAY MOMENTS –(#SOL-2022)
23-05-2022 On Sunday we saw the sun shining brightly after ten days. It was a welcome sight. It has been forecast that our South-West monsoon will enter Kerala early next week. These rains are very important for agriculturists. They bring down the temperature too. We usually see monkeys walking on our compound walls in search… Continue reading Everyday Moments- (#SOL-2022)

Today morning I was sitting on the swing, in our verandah, drinking coffee. I heard birds chattering and saw sunbirds zipping from flower to flower. They are small and beautiful.… Continue reading #SoCS April 30, 2022
Thoughts cannot be zipped They fly without a warning From deep within us.
I have started doing Sudoku again after a long time. Some days I can complete all the squares and other days I am able to fill only a few. My father taught me how to do it. He enjoyed Sudoku and complicated crosswords. He read aloud stories from our epics to his grandchildren. He read… Continue reading Day 26 of the March SOLSC! #SOL2022
Yesterday morning we drove to our town centre to buy some clothes and books. It was 10 o’clock and many of the shops had just opened. Workers in the shops were sweeping and wiping the floors. Some were sweeping the open space in front of the shops. Others were hanging garlands of flowers on the… Continue reading Day 18 of the March SOLSC! #SOL2022
I was making phulkas for lunch yesterday and I heard a low sound outside. It seemed to be moving from one place to another. I looked out and saw it was the pheasant crow. It walks slowly, every now then pecking at a worm in the ground. We see a pair everyday, walking in the… Continue reading Day 10 of the March SOLSC! #SOL2022
Blogging in WordPress has brought the world to my home. I am learning something each day. Somehow, I have not enjoyed poetry much. I could never understand T S Eliot 😊. Here I learnt about Haikus and Tankas, Pantoums and other forms of poetry. Ronovan’s weekly Haiku prompts excited me. It is fun to match… Continue reading Day 2 of the March SOLSC! #SOL2022
