115. Butterflies hover
In my flower filled garden
Making joyful hours
116. Frogs splashing about
Midst golden kois in a pond
Rest on lotus leaves
l117. I saw your tears drop
From soft and limpid eyes
The day has ended
118. Hurried and harried
After a busy workday
Rewarded by hugs
119. I felt your soft touch
A motherly kiss on my tired eyes
Your scent filled the room
120. Dip your head in ice
Don’t let emotions prevail
...seven, eight, nine, ten!
121. Venerable tree
You keep secrets well hidden
Let down your branches
122. Waterdogs romp downstream
Cooling heads and heels at noon
Mindless of the heat
123. Yellow ripe mangoes
Hanging tantalizingly
Nipped by a passing bird
124. Sun tanned boys through stalks
Startled rice birds taking wing
Wavy heat shimmer
125. A pebble skims
Rippling the pond’s green surface
Bullfrogs leap aside
126. Raindrops caught in leaves
Give life and shine to a tree
A breeze shakes them off
127. The torturous trek
Through mountain rills and falls
End up in a splash
128. Leafy veil parted
A serene beauty unfolds
Behold a calm lake
129. Geese swim in a queue
After a hard fortnight flight
Respite from the cold
130. Today it’s romp and play
Hunting skills honed keenly
Sharp fangs bag their prey
