Patches of green in our city concrete …
Male' is like one of the most dense cities in the world ...
Old buildings and structures are being leveled almost daily ...
To make way for for offices and apartment buildings ...
And as these new buildings pack in closer and closer ...
Male' is taking the shape of one huge concrete building ...
With narrow roads and lanes as access ways and path ways ...
And in the midst of all that ... its very refreshing to see ...
Some people working hard and exploring the possibilities ...
Where they can fit a few plants ... and grow small gardens ...
Be it balconies ... flat roof tops ... or external stairs ...
We should be happy ... as it has been a long time since ...
A healthy environmentally friendly trend took off in the city ...
These small gardens are like patches of green in the city ...
And people tend to spend a lot of time in these areas ...
While some people like to sit and relax in these gardens ...
Others go there to think ... contemplate ... and cogitate ...
While looking down into the city and vehicles zipping past ...
I'm seriously thinking about starting my own small garden ...
Given the area ... my garden can't be bigger than 3ft by 3ft ...
May be a few potten plants first ... but its a start ... eh ???
Laterx ...
