KINGDOM COME

I just walked into one of that old Nationalised bank after a long time, perhaps with lot of apprehensions. Will I get the transactions get done in time. I prepared myself for the worst and pulled in enough air to my lungs so that i wouldn’t suffocate inside that old dilapidated building.                            But lo and behold the inside corridor’s of this 200+  year old bank even in a little city of mine worked wonders.

Except for some cobwebs (our ineptitude) those stalks are as healthy since I got it from the field … and I believe it would remain so for years to come. I would always show my friends these stalks and would also pride in this collection! Yet la
