For Each Ecstatic Moment

For each ecstatic instant

We must an anguish pay

In keen and quivering ration

To the ecstasy.

For each beloved hour

Sharp pittances of years -

Bitter contested farthings -

And Coffers heaped with Tears!

- Emily Dickinson

Mel

This is Mel - our new puppy. The vet said she is 45 days only. She was rescued with her other five brothers and sisters by a lady who posted she was looking for people to adopt them on Facebook.

It was love at first sight. She's our new source of happiness. Below you can see my girl holding her.

A place to hide

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

One of my favourite places

This is The Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (MAC).  It is a saucer shaped building and it is one of landmarks of the city of Niterói in Rio de Janeiro. The museum is set on a cliff and it is one of most beautiful places I have ever been. 

I took this photo in July 2012 when I went there to meet some fellow poets.

The picture was saturated. Below you can see the original photo.

My Daughter gazing at the horizon

A daughter may outgrow your lap, but she will never outgrow your heart.

Jasmine Tree

This is a Jasmine Tree and it is one of my favourite flowers.

Jasmines are white or pink here but I saturated my photo

and I am in love with the effect it caused.

This beautiful tree is near my home and it's been amazing to see

it blooming all these years.

Raji - my elegant cat

In this photo you can see my cat. He is Raji and somebody put him in my yard 

when he was still a baby. Needless to say we fell in love with him. My fur friend

is an elegant man now. He likes staying in and sleeping all day long. I found

a quote to compliment my picture. I am sure Raji would be proud of me.

"I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior."

Flamboyant Tree

I took this picture during Summer three years ago. I love this tree. It is majestic. Can't wait for  next Summer just to see it blooming again. It is a Flamboyant and it is one of my favourite trees. I saturated it a bit and it is gorgeous but a Flamboyant Tree is always gorgeous huh!

Alone with myself
The trees bend to caress me
The shade hugs my heart.
