The wind in my hair, the soft, moist grass cushioning my head, the velvet tapestry of sparkling stars becomes the stage as the shape shifting monsoon clouds conjure up myriad stories in my head. The moon gleams down its silver light as the lyrics of a popular Bollywood number from a friend’s phone float the zephyr that is as mystic as it is soothing.

Nicely written 🙂
very nicely written, MDI portrayed as we have grown to love it.. 🙂 😀
A touch of Wordsworth to begin with…having bollywood written all over it, and some subtle philosophy here and there..a very nice read.

Fully agreed Sarthak. The story has all the makings of a bollywood movie 😛
