The Blissful Nature – An Abstract Art!

The Blissful Nature! I see the mountains , I see the fountains, I see the forests and the green lush trees, I see the water cascading down, In the valleys through its ups and downs.. I see the magic, I see the beauty, On the canvas of the Creator Divine ! I dream, I paint, with a small little trial, Abstract it may be, with a pour of Art ! In the depth of its colors , in the flow of its splash , I feel in my heart a Bliss of life... - Meraj Zaidi Penned with love Read more...
