Flying Time & Flowers Strong

 #DailyFlowers

Time has gone flying past and it's over nearly 20+ days since the last post. It was also during this interval that we celebrated Mom's birthday! Ah yes, partial me has already put the post celebrating her up.  In the meanwhile, four score and more of pix await to be framed and showcased and 

It is time to write a new post on the blog
But the mind is sozzled by a fog
Rhymes are somewhat frozen
Refuse to be written by the dozen
The praise must be genuine
Not sound like a brain hopped on quinine
Now, what shall this blogger do
Except think stuff through & through
There is a plethora of colors
Pinks, reds, oranges, lilacs & others
Let's begin with these frames
And then will add more to the game

A field of violet petunias did smile
The artist did tarry there for a while
Then in a merry fit splashed his brush
As if he would make the blooms flush
And speckled the violets with dots of white
Other blooms jostled for glory and space
All of them gained their due place
Set to be admired by one and many
Their colors and designs so zany

On a trip to India has Shashi come
Capturing flowers as is his wont and then some
Scenes from his journeys he generously shares
Sparking both memories and oohs / aahs over his fares
From US via Dubai to Hyderabad he did go
The city's gems did he us artfully show
Then across the country he did fly
That section will be showcased bye &  bye

Beauties Shantha continues to bring
In shades that make even nature sing
Colors in glowing profusion
In multiple hues an ever-growing effusion
In this season, hibiscus do reign
Their preeminent position they maintain

Food, delicious food
That always tastes so good
Yellows, oranges do call to mind
Glorious meals for Vivek to find
He has gone and lived the Sula life
Courtesy his lovely, gracious wife
Others sent in loads of orange-yellow
Cheery, pleasant, mellow fellows

Shalini is traversing the Northeast again
Its glories its stories do campaign
Gems not hitherto seen
Are now bursting on the blog's screen
Her Mom chimes in with a Himalayan treasure
To which we mortals fail to measure

Seasons change as time goes by
Autumn does sneak in on the fly
Climes and blooms play the eternal game
Changing colors, hues, frame by frame
We are in October now
Snow shall December allow
Cool winds shall blow their way through
And the cycle will begin anew
