G for Garden

Gardens are one of the most wonderful creations. Nowadays, we don’t visit gardens. Earlier, it was kind of a routine that we used to go to garden and have some fun time there. Every locality has a garden of its own, mostly. The garden near my house has improved due to recent efforts by the locality members.

We have benches all around. We have green grass and small shrubs placed at equal distance from each other. The entire fence of the garden is planted with shrubs having maroon leaves. They just look wonderful for any one who want to visit them in the morning or at any time during the day. There are see-saws and slides at one end of the garden. Most children now-a-days prefer not to come to the garden. I don’t know for what reason.

People generally prefer sitting on the grass rather than on benches. Some have their afternoon meals and evening outings. The green grass that shoots above the soil soothes your eyes and gives you a fresh view. The shrubs and the small plants bear beautiful flowers. I like jasmine and periwinkle the most. The white and violet color flowers are few, but one can find them on the ground without being disturbed by anyone. I tried to pick one of the jasmines and smelled it. I am told they make garlands of these flowers and offer to temple.

Gardens are all alike most of the time, but each garden gives you a new experience. We generally go there to refreshen ourselves.
