A MATTER OF PERSPECTIVE-III

JAPAN
The first rays of the sun
kiss the soil
engulfing it in their warm embrace

Yesterday has given way
to a new today....

INDIA
The sky becomes
a riot of colours
the darkness slowly turning
to a purplish dawn

Yesterday is about to give way
to a new today...

SAHARA
Stars illuminate the sky
their sheen mirrored
on a mere dot of oasis
amidst the vast sandy expanse

Yesterday anticipates giving way
to a new today....

Brazil
Hues of the sky
reflect the breathing city
the lights from homes
creating patterns on nature's canvas

Yesterday still has to go on
before giving way to a new today...

Various regions
different lifestyles
many time zones
Yet..
One world
One motion
the wheels of life
churn on and on....
