    I'm so thankful to have memories--especially good ones--when things in the present aren't going especially well!

    I LOVE MY SHADOW

    I love my shadow,
    My shadow loves me;
    We chat together
    And don’t disagree!

    My shadow and I
    Prefer not to shout
    As we go walking
    And rambling about.

    My shadow’s so wise,
    I ask what she thinks;
    She’s happy to share,
    And then nods and winks.

    My shadow and I
    Are best buds, you see;
    That’s why we try hard
    To always agree!

    Autumn signals the arrival of Durga Pujo here in New Delhi for us, and as someone rightly said, Durga Pujo is like five days of christmas! Having missed that last year, since I wasn't at home, I can't seem to wait for it any longer...

    Hi Laura, are these flowers roses? Yesterday, I went to a Rose show and I couldn't believe the winner it's just a five petal rose!! And I learned something too that roses begin from these apple blooms that we saw on spring. And these roses that we saw now are already hybrid. I will post these unique rose soon. And there was a question yesterday, why there are no blue rose. I didn't know why I didn't asked the answer to that question. I guess I was overwhelmed by all the beautiful roses around me. Happy weekend!

    Such a lovely flower. Is it a shrub? Don't think I have ever seen it before. I think I can see prickles/thorns, but it doesn't quite look like a rose.

    We are having another "shout" here -- as we have a week of 80 degree weather forecast. OK because we haven't had much summer weather. But the summer flowers have faded to a whisper already!

    Lovely post.

    The flowers are lovely and we know that the warm weather and seasons will return... In the meantime, there will be other evidences of nature almost as photogenic.
