Simple Pleasures

We are generally so warped in our work and busy in planning our recreational pleasures that we over look the simple joys in our life. Joys which are part and parcel of our lives we take for granted and search in other avenues for fulfilment, failing which we frustrate ourselves.
"The early morning dew,
the welcome song of the bird
or even the caw-caw of the crow signals the birth of a new day.
A lush sun spreading its wings across the vast deep above
or a rivulet merry making below
or a bud budding in to a smiling flower
cheerfully accepting the buzzing bees with ease.
The stormy clouds , dark and fearful ,
unleash their torrents in a heavy downpour
but the song of the falling rain is joyful
when each leaf sparkles
and air breathes clean again."
