Gulmohar Trees

Come summer and the world suddenly seems drenched in colour. I love the gulmohar trees in particular, for their vivid colours and pretty foliage. The intense hues and cool shade make summer a delight to savour!




Gilt canopies studded with shimmering rubies
Set amidst dainty emeralds
Majestic as summer heralds
Swaying in reluctant deference to the breeze
They oft beckon many a weary traveller
To spend a few moments of bliss
Under their protective aegis
Crimson carpets lulling them to restive slumber
