Landscapes of Living Memories

in Paintings and Verses

“In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.”-Aristotle

 Dr Abe V Rotor

Children fishing upstream by the author.

Capture the moment of recall of sweet memories

of childhood many years ago;

 in words of rhythm and rhyme and meter,

in divine colors of the rainbow.

  

Nature adventure, details of a mural AVR

What makes adventure beautiful is danger,

bringing out man's finest hour;

Homo ludens, sages say is also prayer;

 beyond reason a hidden power.

 

Life goes on in a dead tree, details of a mural by AVR

Life in many ways defined and defied;

ultimate challenge of study;

its beginning and end a great mystery,

and dream of immortality.

 

Convergence, details of a painting AVR

Convergence among creatures,

key to balanced biodiversity;  

foundation of ecology,

and one humanity.

“The poetry of the earth is never dead.” — John Keats

Floral Convergence, AVR

Spring bursts with a variety of flowers: 

in prism like the rainbow;

summer forgets them amidst pleasures,

as they fade out of view.

“Colors are the smiles of nature.” — Leigh Hunt

 

 

Love and care in the wild, details of a painting AVR

Universal is love and care, inseparable duo;

even in the wild, key to evolution, too;

Survival of the fittest in times of war and peace,

inviolable and sacred to all species. 

 

  

Rainforest in details, AVR

I can see the trees, but not the forest;

unless I get lost to know

the world my ancestors once lived

long, long time ago.

 

 

Rivulets and Streams, mural details AVR

Whisper in summer, sing in spring,

roar in monsoon, and back to slumber,

joyfully season after season, 

through generations. ad infinitum. ~

“To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment.” — Jane Austen ~
