Small beauties of nature...

Most of the times, we are too busy to appreciate the small wonders thrown all around us all the time.. But if one tries to find beauty in nature, one will be surprised to see how often small things are so nice, that you want to stop for a moment to relish it..
Few days back while returning from class I stopped in my tracks, there was a small whirlwind blowing dry leaves round and round and was moving across the road. It was very small, quite easy to miss... But it was pretty..
Have you ever tried looking up at a very high tree with a blue sky as the background? It feels that the end of the tree is in the sky itself and if you climb up, you can reach the world that Jack had reached by climbing his magic bean tree. Maybe the giant still exists, waiting for Jack to come back... To punish him... With the axe in his hand.. Maybe he still plays his magic golden harp... Or was it his wife??? In my college there are three trees which make me feel like this.... I love looking up at them...
The setting sun, wherever it be... when it drops to the horizon... Round and if not red, orange.... The sky all around it glowing... I cannot mention specific colours, as I have never till now found the same colours being repeated... Every time, the sky dresses up in a new way, while the sun tells goodbye for a few hours.. Maybe this is his way of telling all of us not to miss him too much... He'll come back soon... And again in a new garment... With all sorts of colours sparkled across the sky to announce his arrival... Red, orange, golden..........
An eagle in its flight.... Gliding smoothly across the sky... With a specific purpose in mind... Maybe, maybe not... But it seems intent while flying... And very few birds fly with so smoothly as an eagle....
A rainy night... A dark cloudy sky.... Ten o clock at night.... A V formation of birds, flying by... In contrast with sky by their white colour feathers...
Lightning from behind a cloud... The whole cloud glows up... And you can see the outline of the cloud as a silver lining... Really, the silver lining of the cloud is one of the most beautiful views on earth..
The golden crescent of the moon.... waiting just for you to specify the destination.... And you will be taken to even the ends of the rainbow, if you name it just once..... The Golden Magical Boat... waiting... waiting.... does anyone know?? And meanwhile weaving magic all around her....

Look around.... Watch nature... It has a lot to offer... If only someone has the patience and eyes to notice.... And you'll be gladdened by what you see... :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
