Fluid Patterns

The weather is awesome.. Sky really overcast with huge clusters of pigeons on the terrace across from us.. Drinking the little collected water there.. Sea a deep grey.. Softly rippling waves trembling across its expanse as if at once impatient and excited to dance with the impending drops soon to reach home.. Feels like a hill station right here right now.. 

I wonder sometimes why we need to get away from time to time.. Even though it is to the same places.. Is it the weather.. Or break from routine.. Relaxation.. Or just escapism.. Cant we break the conditioning and have a similar holiday at home.. The day the weather is beautiful.. Take it as a holiday.. Go on a long drive.. Have relaxing prolonged tea watching the rain.. Have dinner in the balcony amidst lamps or candles.. Or a picnic on the terrace.. Watch movies.. Play games.. Do sight seeing or shopping.. Rediscover the place you live in.. After all the weekend destinations are also the same each time.. Why is This conditioning so hard to break.. 

The ripples have intensified.. Fluid patterns awaiting embracing the seamless drizzle wordlessly lost in this mating dance.. To a pulsing music beating soundlessly within.. The clouds thumping like beating drums.. As if in celebration of this homecoming.. The sea rising in waves of gratitude.. And smiling froth.. The cool breeze unveiling for this joyous occasion.. Running free and amok.. With its invitation to one and all.. A sensual opera thats free magical and intoxicating.. 

We had kahwa and left for friends.. Had drinks.. Danced.. Returned home around 1.30.. Now will be sleeping.. It took us almost more than 2 hrs to reach their house.. But the weather was stupendous.. Really overcast with a light drizzle.. The sea a dark crestfallen grey.. As if unable to wait anymore for that torrential cascade.. And the sky vying between shades of indigo and blue.. Flitting hues of indecision.. And bittersweet parting.. Could not sleep so came out to read inferno and slept out only for a couple of hrs and got up and started reading inferno again..
