The Snail

Oh Snail, why so r u in a hurry? I know you will eventually reach your destination.  Be a little slow.  Let me learn the way you pass so swiftly on a sandy carpet;  You crawl so gently even remaining submerged in the water!  I wonder of all the struggles that you face so bravely!  Oh snail, the unique one,  I wish I can see the beauty of every inch of the Earth like you!! 🖼 credit : self

Chose an untold path

No worries if you lose your destined way. Chose an untold path. And let your journey be thrilling. No worries if you can't reach your destined way. Take an unrevealed path. And let your journey be exciting.  ✍ Susmita Dey

Each day is a blessing.

Each day brings about a fresh breeze. Each day adds new colour by blooming of flowers. Each day new lyrics are composed by humming of birds. Each day butterflies happily flutter their wings to get sunshine. I am grateful for each & every day.  I am indebted to the sun's ray. That I have lived all day, attracted to the greenery. That's quite of an absolute receipt for me! ✍ Susmita Dey   (📸 credits: Susmita Dey )

Victorious Mountain

The cheerful mist celebrates. She covers the mountain with her thick sheet. Proudly carrying the flag of the winner. But at the very last moment, the ever-victorious mountain peak come out. Remove the thick sheet in one blow. Sunshine rays start painting the peak instantly And, the glittering mountaintop stares humbly at sun. ✍ Susmita Dey (Image: collected from the internet) Susmita Dey 

वह हैं गुलाब।

कहानी है एक फूल की वो फूल है गुलाब की हर एक पंखुरी जिसकी हस्ती, खिलखिलाती, गुनगुनाती ; ठंडी हवा से घुल कर महक जिसकी  मीठा सा महसूस कराती पर वो खुद काँटों में रहती! kahaanee hai ek phool kee vo phool hai gulaab kee har ek pankhuree jiskee hastee, khilakhilaatee,gunagunaatee ; thandee hawa se ghul kar mahak jiskee meetha sa mahasoos karaatee par vo khud kaanton mein rahatee! 📸 credits: Susmita Dey.     - ✍ Susmita Dey
