First day of summer

On June 22, 2021

In dVerse Challenge, Haibun, Haiku, Poetry

It had been a long hard winter with coronavirus wreaking havoc day after day. It was heartbreaking to see people struggling for their lives as the medical community began to buckle under the constant stream of patients. The dark clouds of uncertainty hung over everyone’s life.

But the vaccinations provided a silver lining amidst these dark clouds. And as the first day of summer began, these vaccinations were speeding ahead and began to show that there was light at the end of the tunnel. As the sun shone bright, the brightness in people’s lives also began to take shape.

Dark night sky

The dark night sky

so many stars wherever you see

peace and quiet around,

a time to reflect

So many stars wherever you see

that light up the night sky

in all its glory

Peace and quiet around

with miles and miles of desert

without a single soul around

A time to reflect

and introspect for everything

that has been and always will be

Incoming cyclone

As the cyclone barrelled towards the city, the clouds started to show their true colours. The summer had already begun in full force with the heat giving the feeling of great balls of fire.

But the cyclone bought a sea change in the weather turning the sky from a few white clouds to almost black with dark grey clouds.

With a lot happening in the upper atmosphere, the city beneath looked so beautiful amidst the lovely breeze and the droplets falling on the leaves.

Though it did cause damage with broken trees and other infrastructure including flying objects like bottles.

As the butterfly flew on its route over the lake,

Fantasy

the ducks calmly looked up at the orotund blue sky.

Focus is generally the central point of attention and activity. For photographers, it’s all the more important to keep the focus on a specific subject so that their photographs are able to tell their stories.

The focus was on the sunset and the lovely colours in the sky

The focus was on the entire landscape itself (time to splashing into the water) – last photo on my mobile

When I was in the US in October of last year, I loved every bit of seeing fall colours wherever I could. But I never knew that the colours up above in the skies would be equally beautiful too.

These ones are during one of the walks I had taken after a spell of rain in Glastonbury, Connecticut.
