In a way this was a chance click. I was just walking by this small lane when somewhere from nowhere these leaves fell on to the ground right in front of me. So yeah, one may not be wrong in saying that i clicked this photograph only because the leaf fell.But personally, I just loved the play of colours here....
A pleasantly green leaf falling on earth while being bestowed by intense sunlight only to make it look so empyrean. And as I speak about the leaf falling and breathing its last, I only get reminded of this beatiful poem by Rumi:-
I died as a mineral and became a plant,
I died as a plant and rose to animal,
I died as animal and i was a man.
Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
- Jalal ad-din Muhammad Balkhi Rumi
