Love Note

I remember the first time we met.

You took me by surprise.
So perfect, so beautiful.
How you stood out in the crowd,
All eyes drawn to you.

You came closer.
My heart beat faster.
The closer you came, the more I started falling.
 Falling unexplainably love with you.

It was love at first sight.
But was it meant to be?
Would getting to know each other,
spoil this first wave of pure, unhampered love?

Its been close to half a decade now.
We have had our share of bad days,
Days when were not at our best.
But I still love you as much as I did that day.

Perhaps even more.

My dear blueberry cheesecake,
This is my ode to you.
To our love.

Day 6: Of Pangong, Peace and Paneer Pakodas

I think no amount of words and no amount of pictures can capture what I see and feel today - the sparkling streams, the wild horses running along side the roads, the Pangong lake teasing us, subtly changing her appearance as and when she pleased, acting as the window to the Sky's Soul; the quaint little tents overseeing the lake, the chilly winds, the warmth of Maggi and paneer pakodas. The sheer bliss and calm that washes over me.
I choose to write no more. I will, instead, show you. Mind you, these pics do absolutely no justice to this Prima donna.
