Raindrops on leaves drip,
A transient impermanence,
Expectant earth waits.
**
Tomorrow leaves fall,
Moist earth embraces the dead,
Rejuvenation.
Cherish the beauty,
Short life,lifelong memory,
In death, renewal.
I haven’t posted much on my blog for some time now. After a long forty day road trip of 9425 miles across USA, I was most probably getting lethargic. Few weeks back I started to write a long short story in my mother tongue Axomiya (Assamese) on my Facebook wall. Well, to make a long story short, after twenty eight episodes and nearly twenty seven thousand words, I haven’t yet seen the light at the end of the tunnel and falling very far behind. To be precise, still traveling hundred and eighty years in the past. I have still a long time to catch up to the present. I took the photograph of raindrops on rose leaves yesterday morning and as I was looking at the photo today, and it’s a gorgeous sunny day today, thoughts that came to my mind were transcribed by my fingers to a set of haikus. Obviously the rust shows.
Fleeting Muse 
Beautiful photo,
Beautiful lines!
Rain drops on leaves
Rain drops on earth
Rain drops in sight,
Rejuvenation
Poet’s imagination takes flight.

Thank you so much. I was thinking of doing a write up of the trip with photos. I actually did post a daily travelogue on my FB with photos during the trip but had no way to upload the photos on WP from my mobile during the trip with spotty internet connections in many places. Will try now. The (would be??) novel in FB is taking quite a time every day.
