!Oh Spark, Where are you ?

Today 28th Feb is A's Birthday, Here is a Bouquet of poetry just for him.

SKY !
Now that you reached thirty five
Let me ask you WHY

In all the girls you met
I am sure and I can bet
Many were so sweet
What are your expectations
That they did not meet

I know you will ask, why not
I am looking for a SPARK
till date I could not spot

your life will nolonger be dark
I can see a flashing SPARK
getting into your ARC
That will light up your life
That day is not far
when the SPARK will be your wife.

Here is another composition by Sunand

As I Go By,
Along This Lonely Walk
All Day I Think
And Step In Dark
Fond Thoughts Of You
In Mind We Talk
As I Search To See
That Single Spark

I Am The Akash ,
You Are The Only Lark
Come Towards Me ,
Get Into My Arc
This Is The Open Heart
You Make The Mark
Please Come To Me
You Have That Single Spark

I Will Go To Park
Not Even Leave The Saarc
Sky Is The Limit My Dear
I Want A Splash Of Your Spark

M also has put his share of the flower in the Bouquet

A Wish you a very happy B'day, Have a great day.

In the Laps of Himalaya

New life, New day, New Place Sikkim in the Laps of Himalayas, Yes that's where we went to start our new married life.

Fresh day starts with sun shining on Kanchana junga

Priya and Myself with the backdrop of Kanchan junga

Treat to Eyes, Treat to Ears is the roaring noise of River Tista

Monastery the integral part of sikkim

A young Monk in making

The Prayer wheeels, You rotate the wheel its as good as saying the prayer.

Amazing Painting at the Monastery

Calm and Quite the buddha

Nothing less then walking on the Ninth Cloud

Glimps of Mt. Katao on the way to pelling from Gangtok

A unknown trekker, for him treking is more of neccasity than a Break

Changu lake at Height og 12,000 ft, Hardly 20Km from the lake is Nathu-La, unfortunatly we could not make it to that place :-(

This reminds me of Onake obavva, a less seen sight in our life

One of the Many Mejestic View of Kanchanjunga ( 8586 mt ) from pelling

Zero point as they call it is the end of Indian Civilization in north of Sikkim

Beautiful Tea Estates of Darjeeling

Gurkha War Memorial in the Batasia loop, now for some Gyan, Batasia loop is on the toy train route from Darjeeling to NJP, a loop is a part where the track takes a turn and passes over itself as a bridge to gain quick height, one of most used techonlogy in Mountain railways.

The World Famous toy train Engine being filled with water in the middle of the road half way thru the trip.

With the toy train raids ends our 12 days trip to Sikkim and Darjeeling. Now we are back in the reality of life, and sad that the honey moon is over.
