Vernal breezes gently rocked the garden jhoola the blue sky vine looping across the butterfly bench created a festoon of stunning amethyst flowers Ram Namavali was approaching contemplating Him, Lion of the Raghu dynasty embodiment of dharma and source of bliss my heart and lips blossomed open a garland of melodious Ram bhajans perfumed the noonday air after the sweet singing session I did a few Yoga stretches and decided to pick some luscious black mulberries I approached the mulberry tree skyrocketing in the western corner of the backyard lifting large heart shaped green leaves I found one or two ripe berries “Hmm” I thought to myself I wonder what happened to all the mulberries? Parting another section of the tree, two orange speckled eyes met mine exploding in innocent wonder there seated nonchalantly on a happy branch was a pretty lil’ brown dove “So it’s you who’s been goggling all the mulberries!” I exclaimed caught “red-winged” the bewildered bird took off scampering across the sky I gathered my meager but delicious bounty added a few frozen blue berries squirted a heap of whipped cream then myself and Rama (the kitty) eagerly licked the platter clean
