There is a bloom around everywhere, I saw it while coming back home ....its the yellow bloom of the gulmohar, magnificiently stretched along the road. I asked the cab driver, if he could halt for a second and I captured this view from the top. The bloom this season is more yellow. Though couldn't help but was trying to notice the crimson red flower. I didn't see that. There is something about this gulmohar tree. Its so magnificently flamboyant and guess when combined with the red flowers, its simply awesome.
Apparently known as the flame of the forest. Here's a tree, when in bloom the entire tree is engulfed with either yellow or red or orange blooms, revealing very few leaves. Breathtakingly Beautiful! nothing compares to this. I knew I will find the red n orange crimson bloom somewhere. I decided to check upstairs, went on the terrace and there it was. one of the branches was spread inside...I could get a closer look now. It was exactly the way I thought it would be.. Isn't it amazing that something as beautiful as this, can do wonders to the soul and the mind. Full of life, vibrancy, radiant..its like a full tapestry of colors along the way till your eyes can find the end. In some time it will be monsoon, Ah ha! the water flowing through the leaves on to these red color blooms, it cant get better than this. I remember at my grandma's house in belgaum...we had the gulmohar trees stretched on either side of the road (both the red and yellow)..Me and my sister, used to play under its soothing shade, on the bright red carpet formed by the myraid petals that had fallen detached by the gentle breeze. During the early morning walks, it use to feel as if you are walking on a carpet of red and yellow blooms......Just a thought, where do we get to walk like this anymore., bare- feet n carefree...........
