A bouquet of thoughts


It has...
A dozen old memories, that never fade into the past. (Do we still call them 'memories'?)
Some new ones, waiting to begin.
A generous bunch of hugs, to light up the day.
A few stalks each, of love, friendship, sorrow and longing.
A trimming of humour, to tease and please.
All wrapped in warmth... for me, forever.

A beautiful bouquet...

MysteryGal,
Yup, tried the pic-through-a-glass after seeing .:A:.'s photograph!

Gee,
Post might be cheesy, but the bouquet is not ;)

Karuna,
Emotional, yes, in a way. But intended it to be a simple something to go with the pic.
Photographer, yours truly.

Jay,
Yes it was :)

sorry casa, still cant look at it... it looks like a surreal vortex of gaudy colors and alien flowers sinkin down a tube and makin me little dizzy in the process.

but there is a certain poetic justice to the pic. its a good ugly picture!

p.s. jst being very critical. no insult intended!

Vikram,
Thanks :)

Medha,
I cant see anything on my sent messages, but email servers do funny things at times! Maybe the comment bounced from my mailbox.
Shhhhhhh...

Pointy,

Memories keep me alive...but it also makes me break down and cry...sometimes i wish it never existed...

Lovely post..

Medha,
;-)

Keshi,
We can cry about the fact that the past isnt there anymore in our present... or be happy that atleast it was there, at some point of time. I would suggest the latter :)

Good attempt. The beauty of it is that you get so many different perspectives.

.:A:.,
Hmmm... yup I guess I should be happy about the unique perspectives. After all, that was the point of experimentation, wasnt it :)

Paheli (sorry I cant make myself spell it as Pahailee),
"A bunch of flowers to be proud of"
Love that expression!
