Temporary Love.

I'm just back home from a ride around the locality i live in. I dropped Dad off at Mekhri Circle so he could accompany aunt and cousins to the airport and then went in search of boxing gloves, driving people crazy on the road with my cruising speed. While fantasising about Papa John's Parmesan Garlic Breadsticks (they are out of this world!), i took the turn into a very quiet, residential lane. And behold, a sight that mesmerised me instantly and captured my heart.
This:
I can't begin to describe how absolutely beautiful the tree is when actually seen. It's one of those moments in life that one is thankful for having happened. I could have sat on my bike and stared at it for hours, memorising the shades of every dangling petal about to fall to the ground or the swaying branches heavy with pale-yellow blooms, but i would have appeared to be a highly suspicious character spying on the houses. It wasn't just a sight to soothe the eyes, but also the soul. A lot like love.
Say you'll be mine, you divinely gorgeous tree, you. Please?

i saw the same type last year near OTS and i went delirious with delight... it's so gorgeous...i went with my cam and took lots of pics... in fact, these were the first set of 'decent' pictures! but honestly, no picture does justice to it! it is so beautiful in real!

True. I contemplated taking my camera and going back, but i thought that would be overdoing it a little bit. :P
