Idyllic Retreat

It was such a great experience to be able to pay a visit to the folk song (Baul Fakiri) singer's village at Krishnanagar.

Though, it was a long journey (4 hours from office to the destination). The place is no longer belonged to Kolkata, West Bengal neither. We were entering the other state, which we are told to be the very border of Bangladesh.

Inside the car, it was gorom (hot). The torrid noonday sun did not spare us. Moreover, its confederacy, the wind brought the hostile scorching air, assaulting us. However, the unbearable heat was later changed into exciting exclaims!

Greenery! The huge borderless grassy lawn was amazing!

I do appreciate to be allowed to wander into the idyllic village. Though walking under the sun, suddenly the hostile heat turned into the most welcoming fervency. I enjoy the serenity and simplicity of the village, I really do.

Amidst the greenery, there are butterflies flapping their colourful wings; seasonal birds soaring in the deep blue sky; ducks gliding through the lake effortlessly; cows are taking nap under the trees but some are just grazing the grass in the laziest manner. How I wish I could be part of it!

The best part of my trip to India is to able to escape from the daily routine. The trip to this lovely village indeniably even fulfilled my retreat.

Serenity. Tranquility. Why so worry? Life can be as simple as it was supposed to be!
