Rise delicate one
from the liquid womb
murky and quite.
Rise to the kindling
of the heavens above
Rise to the skies.
for you will float above it all
and eventually
keep the company of Gods.
On a good day like this a package arrives.
Brimming with pink and white lotus buds
You hear them slowly unfold into blooms ..
and quietly remember a day not long ago that went something like today goes.

what beautiful pictures Chandan...

hi there!
beautiful pics.
I like the lotus and the lush pink.
I love that lotus, grow them here too but not as pretty as yours.
Chandan,your first snap almost looks like a lotus whisperer... beautiful... I completely share your love for the lotus ...becuse they don't quite stand very firm on their stems... I usually put them in a long glass cylinder ... either ways they are lovely and so is your post.
Thanks for sharing.
