I will be the rainbow of your cloud!





I will be there to share
 my colours with you 
whenever you are 
feeling blue!


I will be the moon 
of your nights 
and make your days 
sunny bright!



when you find 
yourself falling 
I will be there
 with my arms open



I will let my smile 
touch yours
for you are my world
and my love is yours!



Your silence is beautiful
but I have to say this aloud
I will always be the rainbow 
of your cloud!!




On my way....taking inspiration....exploring....learning...dreaming new wishes ...every day :)

"Turning Pointe"





Hey my lovely friends
It has been actually long since I wrote a blog Post !
Wondering what I had been upto ?
Well I was busy with my hands in the paint jars
and my eyes glued to my canvas  ...
creating "Turning Pointe"

W2W is a specialized event management company
which promotes and offers platform to various professional organizations,
 companies, Brands, and individuals.
 Over the years, w2w has conceptualized and created various genres of events to cater to this ever growing market.

Every year W2W create an event
Against the Tides 
where artists from various nations 
join together to showcase their talents. 
The 5th edition of the event which had a super opening on this 28th of September
 is still on at Dubai International Art Centre. 

Here are a few pictures to give you the feel...

























It was an absolutely delightful experience. 
The theme this year
 was to celebrate the survivors and fighters of breast cancer. 
An opening night where 
warriors walked in eye catching attires
 celebrating "Pain to Power,"
adorning the walls were beautiful paintings
 representing different perceptions 
of artists
 celebrating "faith, strength and perseverance"
 of breast cancer survivors!  
There were songs on guitar,
and poetry reading also !

My painting "Turning Pointe"
was dedicate to the theme and
inspired from my own poem 



  I sat there that moment
with a spark in my eyes
curious...confused... marveling
where my strength lies...

looking for a miracle
happening now ...happening here
a moment ...that is magical
and I looked and looked everywhere

every shadow... each star
every thorn... each flower
I looked... and ...searched
in the sun ...and in the shower

what made me different
I wondered
and in this quest for illumination
I surrendered

I sat there that moment
my heart ... still...
calm... and listening to each beat
I tried to look within

and then I found I am here
to live this 'now'
to let my radiance shine
 to be me... and to be a WOW :)


It was a night with
beautiful vibrant colours splashed all around ,
cheerful, beautiful people,
creativity in the air,
an unmatchable...lively atmosphere
and all this was just enough to 
lift my spirits high!

Faith



Oh my little heart
keep shining your light
it may be dark all around
keep beating with all your might

Stay stained 
in the brightest of colour
keep singing 
the songs of love

Your mysterious beats
whisper poetry in my ears
stay untamed
keep following your bliss

The fragrance you emit
blooms in my eyes
Stay unselfed... keep romancing
 and keep painting the skies!

Meanderings

I let my thoughts meander through the sea of moments
 I spent with my family in the God's Own Country,
 as it is very aptly called, Kerala.



Kerala is one of the most sought after destinations in the whole of Asia. It is characterised by the unique features like The arabian Sea in the west, the Western Ghats in the east and an amazing network of Forty four rivers.Now this was quite a lot to lead us to this exotic state in India.



As we entered our resort called Niraamaya Retreats in Kovalam
 a big flash of smile spread on our faces.
 An absolute tranquil reception with a soft incense fragrance in the air 
and magical peaceful atmosphere.



 Absolutely green place with small traditionally built cottages
 nestled among the tall and handsome coconut trees.
The best part- it is situated just on the long shoreline with a serene beach,
 clean and accessible only to the guests.
It also is a destination for Ayurvedic health holidays
 and we were blessed to have an in-resort spa with such blissful facilities.



The art-lover in me was completely enchanted
 with the artistically done restaurant.





 Kerala has an exotic cuisine 
and although we are vegetarians we were completely spoilt for choice by the chef.








The super part was that all the vegetables that were cooked, 
were grown in the vegetable garden of the resort itself 
and whenever we showed our desire
 to have  fresh coconut water ...
a man would climb up one of the hundreds of coconut trees in the resort
 chop it ...
bring it down
 and serve us immediately...now could anything in the world be fresher than that ?

Actually there was so much of art and culture to admire wherever we went...
whether they were the museums or the ancient palaces or the local markets.









We took a boat ride in awesome stretches of Poovar backwaters





 a lush hill station called Ponmudi.



 The whole area lends a beautiful sight of sprawling plantations and paddy fields.




At night the waves sang us lullabies and how I loved falling to sleep with that sound
In the morning they wished us good morning with a lot of energy and cheerings
coconut trees swaying and dancing to the tune of the cool breeze






not even an inch of land is untouched with greenery!








It indeed was a vacation superbly spent!!
Hope you enjoyed reading my post :)
So what have been you upto ?
