'As time grows older, I stop to ponderThe path my life has treaded uponTo lessons learnt my mind does wanderAnd the people into my world, drawnAs life goes on, I stop to wonderAt the way it unfolds in front of meThru my storms, love stole the thunderNow life’s not just about me, but WE!'

A chapter from human nature.

'Allow me to share one of my favorite poems of all times written by James Patrick Kinney~Six humans trapped by happenstanceIn black and bitter cold.Each one possessed a stick of wood,Or so the story's told.Their dying fire in need of logs,The first woman held hers backFor on the faces around the fire,She noticed one was black.The next man looking cross the waySaw one not of his church,And couldn't bring himself to giveThe fire his stick of birch.The third man sat in tattered clo(...)'

'Nopes! Not cricket or my age (plssss)! :) Wellll today, I have a little over 50 precious readers who follow my blog and I am absolutely delighted! My first sweet little milestone! :)Rewind. I began blogging in 2004, but it was a personal/private blog and I did not have the confidence or the drive to share it with the world. Not my comfort zone. Last year, with a little nudge from friends and my own soaring interest, I let m(...)'

Bedtime Black.

'I am a nocturnal writer. a solitary writer. Nighttime is my time.Inspiration sets in when the sun sets down, when the sky turns a haunting shade of black – it’s my time for my secret tryst with words and thoughts. My 'fictional' quill and ink does the rest like a loyal shadow...Like the perched owl within the dark forest looking for its prey, I embark on a midnight journey of writing... hunting for my nocturnal words. They are out there waitin(...)'

Old world charm.

Author : :-Dee      Blog : The Petal Pages      Date : 11/28/2011 5:20:00 PM

'You’ll have to agree - there is an undeniable mystic aura that surrounds ancient relics, monuments and ruins, not to forget those priceless antiques, sculptures, murals and vintage art. Remnants from beyond. It whispers about a time that was… of a time that never will be... it is all that is left behind for us to remember...Don't you feel that rustic romantic breath of air that subtly envelops and adorns architectures from an era of bygone glory? T(...)'

My tryst with books...

Author : :-Dee      Blog : The Petal Pages      Date : 11/10/2011 1:51:00 PM

'mmmmmm books… It’s the monsoons - perfecto for my renewed challenge to read books and reignite this long lost hobby of mine. Once upon a time, I was an avid bottle-eyed bookworm utterly obsessed with books; libraries where my seventh heaven, my cloud nine, and under the blanket was my cozy wormhole, night was day and day was night, I never cared. Good times!But unfortunately, as time passed by and life ebbed on, so did my dwindling interest in books… sigh. Ever since, I have been wi(...)'

Simplicity.

Author : :-Dee      Blog : The Petal Pages      Date : 11/4/2011 5:49:00 PM

'Life. We woefully crib as we live; mocking at our disdained attempts to be happy, to want more, to find peace, to be more than we can be. We point fingers at life. The glass is half empty. We inadvertently keep searching – restless perturbed souls. We search for light with a lantern.But... yet when a life departs we mourn; unutterable grief at a sudden death. and yet when the first cry of a newborn life pierces the stillness of silence; we delight. Ecstatic raptu(...)'

'What would I be without you? I dare not think anymore… What was I without you? I can’t remember anymore… Almost like a dream never dreamt Almost like a wish never meant You seem so known yet unknown You seem so real yet unreal Never knew someone could be Never knew someone would be My strength yet my weakness My smile yet my tears… My calm yet my restlessness My peace yet my fears…You are everything and more...'
