Water Lilies


I love this picture (courtesy : keralatourism.org)

It reminds me of my own childhood when I used to go plucking water lilies from ponds and paddy fields in the neighbourhood.

When I was in my late teens, I made a small pond in our garden to grow water lilies. We gathered white, violet and red lilies and planted them in my pond. The water lilies flourished and the pond eventually looked like a Monet canvas.

Work brought me to the United Arab Emirates. When I return to Kerala...I will build a bigger pond and grow lots of water lilies... (smile)
