Suddenly I noticed this colorful moth ( is it a cricket/ grasshopper, friends?) on the rearview mirror frame, came all the way to my building sitting pretty still.

Unfair Play
How did it get so late so soon?
It’s time for a weekly quotation-inspired image.

“How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?”
Dr. Seuss
Unfair Play
how did it all pass away so soon
old age came before the youth could croon
how some young faces are full of wrinkles
before they are swamped with
smiles and twinkles
how did time so soon fly by
before saying a proper goodbye
how come nature is not fair for some
spring is so short, and
longest is autumn

“That proves you are unusual,” returned the Scarecrow; “and I am convinced that the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed.”

Beware of the
fire of revenge
of a wounded ego
Beware of
fury of nature
if abused or
misused
or overused
for greed
Beware of
the fire of hunger
of any kind
Beware
for they know
no forgiveness
Try to suppress them
they will
hollow you out from inside
like a termite
Fight them
they ruin you
with a vengeance
Just be aware of them
and treat
with the love, care
and understanding
give them what is due
Or
the result will be
devastating
and all humanity will suffer

nature with colors and brush
its greenery, trees
humbling down with various fruits
with the bouquets of colors
could not copy rich fragrance

my gratitude to the mother nature
for blessing us with the spring
which gives us in abundance
the buds and the blooms and the colors
and for especially the cuckoo for sweet music
and the mango trees
who at the hint of the spring
get laden with fragrant blossoms
to give us mangoes in plenty
without discriminating
the rich and poor
