I was a bit reluctant in the beginning since I'm not a blogger but then I realised people now prefer reading blogs on screen to columns on paper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without moving away from today's agenda I will introduce you to Heidi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Few months back I went to a party at a friend's place. That friend had invited another friend who walked in with his wife and his 3 year old daughter - Heidi. I believe everybody at the party fell in love with her. Only I came up with this one. Sorry I forgot to take her picture. Told you I don't think and act like a blogger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;In this party&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;you look for a corner&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;you look for a welcoming floor&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;You sure stepped into hearts&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;as you walked through the main door&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Heidi!

In Calcutta, the sun rises at 4 in the morning and likes to laze around the sky.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My boss here was generous enough to Jet cargo me to our Calcutta office. And my employers are extravagant enough to make it enjoyable. So I finally opened my dreamy eyes as the aircraft came to halt. And I saw a happy mother sky playing with the newly born dark clouds. Something you would want to see every Friday morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gopal Da was at our service now with a seasoned white Ambassador. As he shifted to the fourth gear I lit my first cigarette of the day. With every exhale I saw wet streets, overwhelmed trees and a lake. The greens became more prosperous with more exhales. And when I threw the cigarette out of the window, my smoky eyes opened widely. I saw greener football grounds co-existing happily in the neighbourhood.&lt;br /&gt;One of them encouraged old bones to walk peacefully.&lt;br /&gt;Another such ground was caught in a practice which through my eyes looked quite festive. Energetic footballers clad in yellow jerseys and red shorts were practicing with a more energetic coach. They were all girls in their teens, and short pony tails.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The white ambassador entered a big iron gate and I knew the drive has reached its end. I was trying to recollect the visuals I saw through the half open ambassador window. But I didn’t know the city of joy had much more to offer. We drove right into a club built on a golf course. Green was the colour of the day, all shades of green.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to skip the part where I went to office and started my corporate chores. But yes, the office was a small old building stuffed with warm and welcoming people. And hospitality in West Bengal has only one fundamental principle. Thou shall and will overeat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout my not so tiring day, I kept humming Bengali songs in my heart. It’s something I do when I’m at peace with myself. I felt I was in the domain of music. The air I was breathing must have come out of a distant harmonium inside a Victorian middle class house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The songs in my heart and now in my head kept getting louder. And I realised, I am singing the songs I heard and learnt in childhood. But repeating them again and again made me feel like the musician in search of more. More words, more air to breathe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ‘Rabindra sangeet’ calling (as I would like to put it in words) became stronger. Through the refined hustle bustle of Park Street, I entered the Music World there and I was breathing the air again. With deeper breaths. Elated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My next post would take off from here as I take a bow. Today, the mother sky of Delhi is singing with the wind. Waiting for her clouds to accompany her with some more instruments. And I am listening to ‘Gems from Tagore’ as I wait to breathe in the same air again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8189100848089998169-3841804365805593068?l=thecorporategypsy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thecorporategypsy.blogspot.com/feeds/3841804365805593068/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8189100848089998169&amp;postID=3841804365805593068' title='12 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8189100848089998169/posts/default/3841804365805593068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8189100848089998169/posts/default/3841804365805593068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thecorporategypsy.blogspot.com/2007/06/oh-calcutta-morning.html' title='Oh Calcutta!
