Renaissance

Once it was a tree full of zest 
Leaves laden all over its chest 
Enjoyed the gaze of sun in glade 
Days passed by and charm began to fade 
Crawled towards frailty as autumn begins to chase 
It turned languid just in matter of days 
Neither delight stays forever nor does grief stay 
Time to cherish, spring is on its way 
Once again twigs and flowers will sway 
Birds will sing, birds will dance 
Time for joy, time for renaissance

[Abilash Uttama]

Civil engineering is very wide, civil engineers take care of drinking water, roads, railways , buildings.

[Arunima]

Toh tum kya "take care" karne wale ho??? tenu action movies zyada pasand hai ya something else??

[Abilash Uttama]

Sirf take care nahi karna hota design karna hota hai aur mujhe thodi dramatic movies pasand hai like seven pounds, pursuit of happiness

[Arunima]

These movies are my all time favs... Mr. "music enthusiast" kya gaana sunte ho???

[Abilash Uttama]

A lot and I even play guitar though I am a learner but I can play few songs ;)

[Arunima]

WOW!!! :):)

Rebirth- a good concept. Applicable to nature as well as man. The only difference is that nature has a specific pattern for dying and taking life again, while its difficult for man to decide the right time to stop doing what he is doing wrong and take a new step. Nicely crafted, ending on an optimistic note. Good one :)
