I have a beautiful almond tree in front of my balcony…everyday I use to stand with a cup of coffee in my hand … waiting for my cab or just enjoying the coffee…observing this beautiful tree….the thoughts were always on my mind but penned them now…..
Every time I stand here in my balcony
I look at this lovely almond tree
Each time it instills in me a positivity !
Let there come a storm, rain or be it sunny,
It still stands firm facing it patiently
Sometimes yellow, brown or bare completely
It still stands strong smiling hopefully
Sheltering the birds and the needy
Telling me, live life generously!
Swaying with the wind and moving with seasons constantly,
It teaches me the life’s simple story
Accept change and keep moving consistently
Every storm , rain and sun builds in you more energy
After every fall there surely comes springs beauty
Life is beautiful, live generously with patience , hope and positivity!
