conversations

                                                    



I peeped through the half drawn curtain and the Sun had just yawned. Wish I could turn 

back the clock and drift into sleep for some more time. Responsibilities work as alarms 

and I kicked myself out of the bed. My gut instinct told me that today would be a fruitful 

day. 


I stepped into the CIDCO Garden after completing my kitchen chores. The morning 

breeze sauntered and I inhaled the fragrance of freshness. My feet became alert and 

took long quick strides to cover the semi circular jogging track. My heartbeats increased 

and some of my co-walkers (I just coined this word) were already sweating it out. The 

breeze seemed to hold my hand and walk with me. I smiled and asked " How has your day 

begun? ".

"Just as your day has begun", replied the gust smiling and buzzing around me and teasing 

me. Naughty girl.

I started to like the silent conversation.

"You seem to be so cool now. where do you disappear?", I inquired.

"The Sun's rays percolate down my body and I absorb the heat. You dislike me at noon", 

sulking as a small child.

"You too enjoy siesta as I do", pacified me."You join me again in the evening as a true 

friend", I continued.

The breeze howled  and I joined in the laughter.

The trees and the plants swayed to the music of the wind. Were they greeting and 

conversing? 

My grandma had told me that every creation of Nature talks and responds. We have to 

keep the doors of our heart open to understand and reciprocate. Not all conversation 

start with words.

Readers, do you converse with trees and animals? Share your experiences.
