the emerald islands.....


It has so much to offer that one gets lost in its many ways.  The Andaman island group embodies a mosaic of an outstanding biotic blend with an exotic excellence. It is a fresh surprise everyday.  Oceanic panorama is not just the only blissful facet of the Andaman. It is the home to marvelous mangroves, limestone caves, dashing corals, dense green forests, mud and lava volcanoes and the diverse zoological world. It is also the refuge to one of the oldest races of mankind. The historical remains of the Indian Bastille that is the Cellular Jail adds another dimension to its offerings. Far from the mainland, it is not less than a recluse amidst the Bay of Bengal. It has however created its own niche and distinctiveness.

The Emerald islands are a group of total of 572 islands, islets and rocks both inhabited and uninhabited. It is undoubtedly a pie in the sky type of destination for an exotic long vacation. The ideal time to plan the jaunt to the Islands is from October to April. One can relish ones time in adventurous trekking and water sports or just relax in the captivating white sand along the coastline. The White sand of the Radhanagar beach in the Havelock islands is simply incredible. One can witness outstanding landscapes and natural vista during ones stay at the several other islands.Every island is unique in its delicacy. Andaman Islands are also the home to exotic and varied sea food. The enveloping atmosphere with its eclectic flora and fauna creates an unending love in the hearts of the travelers.


To me the Andaman island trip is the most memorable one. It has been quite sometime but I still recount the time spent there. It in real surprised me everyday. There was so much to get lost into. Every day was a new endeavor to explore into the picturesque extravaganza. I can still recall that right from the moment my flight entered the nautical periphery I could nous the emerald existence of the islands. Blessed with crystal clear water and the endless undisputed white sand, the emerald islands created in me an unforgettable impression of nature with a caressing soreness and a pensive fondness into its subtle tones. At 17 it was my first romance. I could finally decipher the words of Keats, Shelly and Wordsworth and very well understand what made them pen so well.

when you said that no....


When you said that no
my heart sank up to my knees
things turned steady and slow
the cheerful life got the hasty blow
hours seemed like a damn century
I realized how helpless I was indeed

It was the moment I had waited for
Or maybe I was jus expecting more
I don’t know what really went wrong
Why at last you turned me down
I wished I could undo your nix
Then things would have been less tragic

The string of my joy was in your hand
You tore it apart and took your stand
I have no hatred for what you did
But I get sad every time I think
Move on is all I tell my heart
There is so much life if I restart.
