Aarey Road was autumn like.
It had Fall Foliage!
There are trees of a kind that grow along the road, the kind that grow without much tending or care (These trees and stray dogs could almost belong to the same category. Trees that grow by themselves and strays that grow up well without Pedigree or shots) They come into flower with very pretty and delicately small yellow blossoms this time of the year. These trees are innumerable considering they dot the entire 6 to7 Km stretch!
They make Aarey Road look less verdant and more golden. Looking up, one can see trees from either side joining in a canopy of sorts overhead, yellow blossoms mixing into one another. Sunshine streaming in through that foliage is truly yellow. The road reminds me of a room, protected from the harsh and glaring sunlight by thick yellow curtains! There was this kind of a muted yellow glow on Aarey Road today.
It was raining yellow blossoms throughout. Every gust of wind, weakest to the otherwise was followed by a sprinkling of flowers from atop. They fall on the grey concrete and get windblown back to the edge of the road, to settle at the foot of the trees from which they fell.
Along the road, at each side, were heaps and heaps of these wild yellow blossoms. It felt carpet like, and I could picture my feet sinking into them if I were to decide to walk. Aarey Road was not earthy red on either side of the grey concrete. It was a mixture of fresh yellow and dried yellow. There were no signs of a hard ground, only soft, generous heaps of blossoms cushioning the earth.
And there was the ever rising sun with his shine! Nowadays it’s time for it to shine self-importantly.
