Iris of the Eye

In the sun, I could see the blue sparkles of the sea blue earrings on my face. The "Magic Bean" Swarovski Elements Austrian Crystal drop Earrings with its cut looks like the iris of the eye. The earring have some weight to it, which will remind you that you have made an effort to wear something different than usual. It is a French Wire earring, so easy to put it on and take it off. The two spaced straps atop the crystal, add to its mystique like an orange being peeled.

A Necklace with character

In the Sun, the Mondaynoon Eternal Love Teardrop Swarovski Elements Crystal Pendant in Olive shines its green sparkles on your hand, if it gets closer to the necklace. The necklace is closer to a choker length than a princess one. There's some variable length to the chain.The chain has tiny twisted links with flat stations at about every digit length. My favourite part of this pendant is the bail. It has two twirls, thicker than the necklace with white stones embedded into it. The necklace loops through the bigger twirl, while the smaller twirl overhang is wrapped onto the pendant.Part of the twirl is left plain which heightens the texture of the embedded part. Overall, the solidness of the tear drop pendant is set well against the fluidity of the twirl and the links of the chain.

I am Waiting poetry series

The girl wants to pull a
wagon cart
her mom thinks too heavy
for her

I am waiting for her
to figure how to
pull out
the upright handle

There seemed an
indentation for a
finger grip
may be that is it

In few minutes
she pulled the
handle by herself
and pulled the cart
away

out of the zoo
where
a girl was standing
not walking
not waiting to leave
even after closing time
She didnt want to leave
so she didnt want to budge

Aquamarine

According to the Smithsonian, Aquamarine has the same origins as Emerald, its the minerals that are in it, that gives them their different colours.


Yesterday, the Moon was golden and big. I have always approached this from west and on foot. Last night we drove towards it from the east. With each pole we passed, it seemed like there was one main pole, where we would stop seeing it, but it kept bouncing pole after pole.

Tanzanite was accidentally found after the plains were burnt during a strike.
According to the Smithsonian sie, depending on how the Tanzanite has been cut, it can resemble sapphire or amethyst.

We are going to the Zoo

We went to the Phoenix Zoo today. I have been there other times, volunteering at some of the exhibits - Monkey Village, Koala Exhibit, cleaning up Oryx Display.

Even though most of the animals are familiar ones, what struck me about the animals was their behaviour. Today we saw a rhino take a leak, it was powerful but when science kicks in, the say is that larger animals dont take any longer to leak. The rhino went back to chowing the grass. And then it moved on to the other part of its station. It did seem interesting to see what a Rhino does the whole day. It did seem like we caught all the other animals at their sleeping time.

We saw a lion sleep on the side with one of its legs up in the air. looks like armadillos do sleep with their legs up in the air. the tiger exhibit was quiet with the Sumatran tiger sleeping somewhere at the bottom of the raised exhibit. Once you get a closer look, you can still see, though lying seemingly dead, its huge. A Mandrill too took to the bed, but the baboons were busy grooming.

A Mom Orangutan surprised everybody standing spatchcocked against the glass and then took a blanket and covered herself in it. Maybe she was feeding the baby or putting her to bed.

I had seen adult komodo before, this time it was a young Komodo on exhibit. The adult was not out in the open as its too cold.
