It's a day that started on a bright note.
But Mr.Sun,very soon, started playing an elusive game of brightening up
everything one moment and then deciding to play blink-wink-disappear the very
next moment. The day that started on a cheerful note seemed to be showing its
various shades within moments. The light seemed to be saying ' catch me if you
can' ! But I was enjoying every bit of it, and why not! Just a few more days of
independence, the random tea sessions, irrespective, of the time of the day,
the no- exercise sessions, going about the city without having to think of the
next 'working' day; such fun times! The very thought of unstructured hours of
work makes me feel so relaxed. Yet, work gets done and things fit in so
effortlessly. And to top it all, the perfect light-and-shade day! All smiles
:).......
Now, Mr.Sun did play his games. The light streamed in through
the partially clouded sky, as if it was creeping in through the bamboo chiks.
The slight grey of it blended with the bright yellow and a perfect shade was
created. The blinding yellow that scorched life, made us squint, hide our gaze
behind the shades, could actually acquire such a lovely mellowness....seeing
and experiencing it made a person like me put it into a few words. Mr.Sun did
know how to colour the world according to his whims and fancies and bring out
the best in everything. Even our moods lightened up and brightened up according
to his wishes! I wish I could capture his mood changes well enough.
Light has its own importance in life. What is it that does not
depend upon it? Light can make things liven up,bringing upon a total mood
change in us. But yes, the right kind of light, the perfect sort of yellow.
Wonder if it makes sense to you.....it does to me, though. Too much of it can
be killing at times, like the tender jasmine creeper that was thoroughly
scorched up last week. The flowering plant was reduced to its crisply fried up
state, thanks to, too much sun. The right shade of yellow creates wonders. The
mellowness creates the right mood, the perfect ambience and environment that allows
things to soak up in its golden hue. The honey yellow dripping from Mr.Sun is
lovely indeed! At such times he makes me want to lie by the window, in a corner
of my most formally informal living room. And with a good book or a magazine
with some pretty glossy pictures to drool over, some mint water and melon!
Perfect combination, I must say! Signing off for now with a few captures from
around my home. Leaving you to daydream and create some magical moments in the
company of Mr.Sun:-)......
