Ode to the mountains


Off to the mountains
Where nature begets
Peace in my mind
And no regrets

I've never been here
I was too busy
Starting in the car
I felt dizzy

As the car moved
Around the hills
To see more of it
I made a will

Slowly my mind
Got off the worries
I thought I've a lived
a life in utter miseries

As against the city
The life was slow
I felt fresh air
And happiness flow

School children
As they walk passed
Carefree, fearless
All there was

People with good physique
Hills made them walk
Come what may
a hill, river or a rock

Trees soaked in
first drop of water
Oh what a sight
was that of a shower

I take in my mind
 a picture of serenity of the hills
lakes, trees, animals,
the silence and the shrills

My end note
"Uttrakhand, A lovely place!
Go back to your roots
Don't forget your race."
