An afternoon walk and the beauty of purple flowers.

Afternoon means a kind of peace soft light and some free time After the hustle and bustle of the day when the surroundings become a little quiet a unique opportunity to be one with nature is created One such afternoon I was walking along the path in front of my house The sunlight had slightly faded There was a kind of tranquility in the air. Suddenly I saw a tree with extraordinary purple flowers blooming on its branches This flower is called Ruellia simplex Many in our country also know it as the purple bell flower At first it seemed like a picture painted by an artist Fresh vibrant and unearthly beautiful I stopped and looked at those flowers at a glance It was not that I had never seen these flowers before but that afternoon light light breeze and silence around seemed to have taken on another dimension.

I took out my mobile phone from my pocket and took some pictures Sometimes we wonder if it is possible to capture the beauty of nature on a mobile phone Maybe not completely but we can try Each flower was a little different Some petals were a little more open some were a little darker The flowers were spread out on the branches of the tree as if they had decided their position themselves facing some and leaning towards others These flowers are not only fascinating for their color but also for their structure The bell-like shape the soft folds of the petals and the dark purple lines in the middle seem to spread a mystery in their beauty When you look closely it seems as if they are dancing in the gentle breeze, trying to say something The smell of the flowers is not that strong but their presence is enough to bring peace to the mind.

While walking I thought about how much we often search for peace love creativity and wisdom Everything is in nature If you pay a little attention you can see that every flower and every leaf is a living poem These flowers of that day became a poem for me They were not limited to just color and shape They seemed to be saying Look appreciate the softness of nature The afternoon was slowly turning into evening The light was diminishing all around but the colors of those flowers seemed to be becoming clearer Looking back for the last time it seemed that this beauty would never come back again These are the small joys of our lives Even today when I look at the pictures I remember that quiet afternoon the feeling of that moment and the colorful beauty of those flowers The beauty of nature is truly a unique gem All you need is the eyes to discover it.
