The ‘Blue Mountain’ snaked its way through the mountains low and high
And beauteous scenery seen around, evoked many a joyful cry
Mountains clouded in mist, and rivers meandering on their way
Were seen and appraised, as also the waterfall showering spray
Tall eucalyptus trees stood majestically, and were a feast for the eyes
On seeing them, there were many exclamations and sighs
For the scene was such, and the day so bright
That everyone felt like hiking in the bright summer light
On the mountains and in the valleys that were spread around
For well did we all know, that such beauty is rarely found..
Wild flowers grew in abundance, and were a lovely sight
Many of them were rare, and only some were trite
The roads that lay beneath us were lovely to behold
The dried leaves on the ground looked like leaves made of gold
Everything was splendid, even the far-away toy like homes
The horses and grazing cows looked like little dwarfs and gnomes
The panorama was magnificent – it was truly a work of art
It left a deep imprint on each and every heart.

'The panorama was magnificent – it was truly a work of art'..
like your words..
(I read and simply close my eyes and drift
and drift
between your syllables, feel
life's breeze
in a room with closed windows
delighting, once more
in Nature's gifts..)
thank you! dear Poet
so well written
'blue mountain' is the toy train operating there when i last visited ooty many years back. but the place is still extremely lovely to behold, and my words are inadequate to describe its beauty.
thank you so much for your wonderful comments - am honored
have a good day - nafisa
