walk through my garden....












'Summer' ... vacation time for the kids ,which brings us back home to Rajapalayam.. a small little town near Madurai. It is generally a pretty dull and dry place to be , but i love the silence sometimes, especially after a busy and maddening city life . I can spend endless hours looking into the western ghats from my window... the passing clouds, variety of birds, myriads of colours on an ever changing sky ... but most importantly i enjoy working in my garden... right now everything is at its bloom.. flourishing and over flowing . Its hard to explain the sheer joy of eating home grown ...fresh ...cheerful veggies!. Walk into the garden u are welcomed to the smell of fresh soil. Then the gentle mist of sweet smelling flowers and fruits passes by. Of course the mesmerising colours of the flowers catches you..Then when u start looking closer it is amazing to see the number of visitors they attract... Once i sat on the floor and observed a small patch of soil for ... i don't know how long... but i counted close to 53 different visitors...
How can one not feel blessed to be in this heaven of abundance...
