Occasionally, you also see images and hear the music in the skies...

normally
"on "
365 days a year
has some special
...days.
A Ghanshyaam Sundara Sridhara
celebrating
Arunoday at Dawn,
amidst jasmines,
cleaned copper skies
and sandalwood.
An Aakash Todi
as
man made Pushpaks
streak through the skies
during a hot day,
encountering a Megh here,
a Malhar there
And then late
evening
after
the chirping
of the birds
has died down,
the winds have stilled,
she comes out onto her balcony
to see and hear
a brilliant
Sunset Bhairavi
accompanied
by Zakir,
shaking his mop of hair
in sheer delight,
as he gestures
and acknowledges
a celestial dhun
being sung up there in the Skies....
Isnt it wonderful ???? The view from my balcony sometimes, overwhelms me... :) I always visit my balcony with a camera in hand..what if there is a fantastic display of clouds and lights, I dont want to miss a moment to click it. :)
