Ode to Spring


Finally I found some time for my blog. It is mid spring now here in Zurich. So there I was just like everyone here coming out of hibernation ( yes just like the bears:)) laying on the grass , having breakfast on the terrace , relaxing in the still mild sun and the pleasant breeze . Enjoying the bees and the birds , daffodils and tulips on the road side , daisies that make the lawn look absolutely white .
Also it is time for Spring cleaning . So there I was redecorating my house , painting for my new collection , entertaining guests( bears just like meJ),
Experimenting and discovering new recipes and crafting all the DIY projects I had planned in my head and many more exciting stuff.
So from now on I will be sharing with you guys all the wonderful things in my life – interior decoration ideas , corners of my home , my Diy projects ,my paintings and my passion for photography , recipes along with my exploration in the wonderful world of art and paintings.
Spring reminds me of the beautiful poetry by William Blake-

" Sound the Flute! Now it's mute.
Birds delight Day and Night;
Nightingale In the dale, Lark in Sky,
Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, to welcome in the Year.

Little Boy, Full of joy; Little Girl, Sweet and small;
Cock does crow, So do you;
Merry voice, Infant noise, Merrily, Merrily, to welcome in the Year.
Little Lamb, Here I am;
Come and lick My white neck;
Let me pull Your soft Wool;
Let me kiss Your soft face:
Merrily, Merrily, we welcome in the Year "

Thanks guys for the support and hope you continue to enjoy Chitra-karma!
