A Flock of Geese at Prospect Park



One weekday, after a difficult day in one of my parttime jobs, I thought I could spend a few hours killing time for my next appointment. Prospect Park, being less than a block away from my worksite, provided the respite from all my mind's concerns.

These birds were just enjoying swimming by themselves, forming a meditative stance in one of those lakes in the park; a concrete short pathway leads to this site from which I took this shot.

Update: Almost all of these killed must have been killed during recent extermination done for safety of airplanes and their passengers in New York City's airports...please read relevant New York Times report here

As all of us participants would work on the stretches and (challenging, whew!) poses being coached to us ably by our teacher, Hollis, in one session, I took note of Luke's p

Last Friday evening (Philippine time), a very good friend of mine (as well as the friend of many, many others) was murdered in his apartment. I got the message from another friend on Facebook. I was since then grappling with the shock, grief and anger over the whole tragedy. Gratefully, I've managed to compose a brief poem on my grief . But the sadness still continues. This friend also happened to be posting comments to several of my blogs here, the last of which came out here . click on the title for more...
