The hurtling traffic was annoying as usual but on the radio, FM 103 was a relief. Renowned guitaristContinue reading “Big Apple”

Holding On

The East horizon was liberating the sun gradually on that beautiful morning. The grass held onto the dewdrops dearly. Trees basked in the sun, and the flowers yawned to bloom.
