Moment

Feeling a little chilly, i set aside my laptop to turn up the heater a teeny higher. Rubbing my palms to generate that extra ounce of heat, i slowly stretched myself and walked towards the dusty glass door facing the lawn. A lush green lawn,a slow slope with trees sprinkled randomly, awaits my gaze.The stunning fall colors in the making.Far on the right lies an empty basketball court. Three squirrels are playing cutely. One in each corner. I never knew they were so active all through. Occasionally, they would pause and see what the other guys are upto and then go back to playing. Each passing moment and they unfurl a new trick. In the background, a pakistani band is zipping up another pseud number. My thoughts, inevitably, move towards evolution. An elegance that took a million years to manufacture. A few minutes suffice to appreciate, a lifetime amounts to zilch to comprehend.
