There is nothing better that I like to do, than lie down flat on my back and watch the clouds from a grassy plot. The sun is playing peek-a-boo, enough for me to conjure pictures in the air. I see a valley there, a mountain here, some sheep that side, a village this side - … Continue reading DAYDREAMS

A BIT OF HEAVEN
Neeta missed it all The open spaces of her village, the trees that swayed with the slightest breeze, the golden wheat and yellow dal fields, the freedom of being able to roam like an unfettered bird, the smell of flowers in the wind, the lowing of the cattle grazing placidly, the camaraderie of the village … Continue reading A BIT OF HEAVEN

TRAIN TALES
I'd rather travel by train than by the road. Why so? For a few good reasons. What reasons? You can stretch out and not have to sit all the time. It helps my back. That's just one!

Eyeing their fancy suits and flashy gadgets strangely, he replied, … Continue reading PIT STOP

I also see a clearing of the skies there, while it is still dense here! I come to this viewing point to get a 3-d or … Continue reading VIEWING POINT & POINT OF VIEW

SONG OF THE PAST
“There was nothing left, you know”, she whispered. “After the Arab Legion captured the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem where she lived, everything was destroyed. Everything. It was a miracle that the cello survived. And then for nineteen years the Arabs would not let any Jew come home. No one to visit her grave.” She faltered. … Continue reading SONG OF THE PAST
