A Gorgeous Day!

The drizzle was in a mood to tease me. I looked at the little drops 'tip-tipping' on my deck, handed my son an umbrella as he left for school, and headed to my desk to 'tap-tap' away. 

While I was staring at my screen, guess who nudged me? My good friend, the Sun. He knocked at the door wearing his widest smile, along with that twinkle in his eyes. So smart, ya? He knows its impossible for me to say no to that. Talk about irresistible charm! Oh boy! 

And so, I complied. Toss the work! Don the walking shoes!


 I ain't moving my feet quick today, neither am I counting my steps. Today, we are out for a 'leisure stroll'. 'Breathe-the-air-Smell-the-rose-type' stroll. 

Sun feeling so nice and warm on my skin. 

Wind blowing my earbuds away. The whooshing was competing against 'Radio Mirchi'. I let it win. Do I hear the chirp-chirp? Music it is! 

The saplings trying to push their way from below the earth, eager to peek at the new world. 

Squirrels scampering away, crossing my path (Thank goodness for no superstition here). 

I soaked in all the sounds and sights, while I smiled at a gardener who looked up to me, his arms full of some pretty purples and whites. 


All you people, who are just getting back from work, I know you are tired. But hell, chuck the couch, ditch the cooking today! Just get out and let this gorgeous day seduce you and take your worries away. For there is always a Chipotle (hint, hint...lolll).
