The Window

Sitting at my desk,
i gaze at the changes
both within and beyond
my window...

Beginning this summer...
lush green and inviting
sunshine streaming in

passing on, leaves drop by
counting down to what seems to yet another winter
colours change from green to orange
at great pace

and now to the fag end
its barren and weary...
reminding me of a lost glory

but 'we' all will emerge
bright and invigorated
to fight on the lull of the winter
and look forward to more sunshine
thereafter....

Wave

Recently and finally after a much hyped up wait i managed to get on to the Wave. Its pretty nice.
The things that now we can do with it. Totally convenient and an amazing tool for real time collaboration.... especially for students and teams.
Any how one thing that is a bit weird is that messages dont 'go' on an Enter aLa GTalk. A very time consuming click precedes this process. Agreed that the messages are visible as is...but still an enter at the end is sort of ingrained....
What say?
