Outside
Gentle zephyr caressed the shrubs and they were dancing to her tunes. Everything right from the blossoms, flora, and withered leaves were fluttering to the tune of zephyr. The cerulean sky remained as the silent witness of the grandeur of cadence beneath the clouds.
Could it be the soliloquy of delighted spirit? Zephyr is no longer gentle and it gained momentum with an ostentatious spirit. The gentle hoedown transformed to whirl of rage. Fallen leaves flurried in vortex and became the quintessence of the mood fluctuation of Mother Nature. Cerulean sky got the hue of sinister dark. The crimson red line in the distant horizon is no longer a dazzling panorama! Everything was clouded and was pushed behind a veil.
Inside
There was the soiree of dichotomous thoughts.
At times, suppurate out of penury but at the same time do not fail to raise toast on the imminent serendipity.
At times seeking succor in oblivion but yet longing to throw gauntlet against odds – the repulsive thoughts started churning body, mind and spirit! It’s time to break free or succumb to annihilation.
Inside / outside For the first time, I have opened the doors of my mind and gazed outside. For the first time “in” and “out” espied in unison. The histrionics of inward journey started meandering outside.
The sweet little flower shriveled with its petals blooming down. The bead of water on petals blended with sunbeam was glimmering. Each and every droplet reflected my myriad images!
Clocked ticked – It is the story of two minutes.
There is an epic behind every passing second.

Scarlett (Johanson) plus Nicole, Kidding Man - Interesting :-)
ReplyDeleteEleven year old girl - taking the risk of being grounded in some juvenile justice home, you may plagiarize :-)
Jokes apart, I have got rid of this from my system. It is yours, your wish,

ReplyDelete~esoteric~
Hey sajz, are you referring to my comments or someone else? Im about to post it but it got deleted when I push the wrong button accidentally. But I'll try to recollect what I have written. I'll come back soon.
ReplyDeleteangel
ohhh... what a way to describe the two minutes story from dawn to dusk! The words were just superb. You have expressed well, the moment between dawn and dusk; how mother nature and life ends before another day comes. Which reminds me of some lines in my story entitled, "When Scarlet Turns Gray" let me quote: "The orange and purplish combination of the sun as it begun to set before the dusk takes over, gives an inviting color of the deep ocean. The reflections of the colors above the sea water, looks like a tiny bits of diamonds that sparkles in the middle of the ocean." Thats why I can very much relate to the story.
ReplyDeleteBut, it could have been more nicer if u started it from dusk to dawn(just my thought)- as the dawn meets the sunrise in the beaming horizon as the start of a new day, new life, new hope, new glory! But nevertheless, the short story is interestingly amazing!
Keep up the good works.

Congrats Sajit bhai on your first blog post! What an epic first post to start off with. You have wonderfully expressed the co-relation between the inside world and the outside world. Nature personified!
ReplyDeleteI am now a follower of your blog and looking forward to read more posts from you. I also tried my luck on blogspot.com but unfortunately it did not click due to lack of visitors and enthusiasm :-) May be people thought I am an egomaniac because my blog is named "borntoeducate"..lol

Ketan Bhai,
ReplyDeleteThat was an excellent rendition on human spirit. True, we fail to see multifarious dimensions of life. We celebrate birthday but neglect myriad passing seconds.
