Green and Lovely


No,  this isn't a complexion cream by Unilever, designed for plants.....

You never know what might inspire someone to click. Like this collection of fruits , guavas and oranges,  in Bengaluru, displaying the same color, but different attitudes, if one might call them that.

Much like folks one sees around us. Clearly emphasizing, that outer color does not give you any superior properties in life . It is what is inside that counts.

Nature
has the last laugh;


Smooth semi translucent
hydrated skin
with an occasional beautyspot,
shapely lines
efforts at being
perfectly rounded,
and a sharp cut
reveals
the colorless stuff inside....

And some really
pockmarked,

thick,
occasionally tough
green skin,
sometimes
puffed a bit,
in an effort
at avoiding
a bright orange aging;
and you
gently peel its layer,
to see
some juicy
orange little ones
crowding together,
held by threads
in white...

Its all about the
Juice of Life....
