Himalayas

Himalayas beckon everyone to come to its fold In as many seasons ‘n as many times ‘n still lust for more Music, all four seasons, they continuously orchestrate A collage of fall colors adds beauty to its lakes, rivers and waterfalls Legendary tales echo glories of gods in its valleys and peaks Abode heavenly it makes away from maddening crowd, a midst the clouds You fall in love with the simple and beautiful people of these hills that Allow you not to miss your home sweet home while Snow-capped peaks bring out grit ‘n courage of mountaineers Contest: the hills are alive with poetry Sponsor: Scott thirtyseven Date: 20.6.2014 Form: Acrostic Lines: 9

Good luck in the contest! My poetry teacher wrote a book length acrostic called ""Darkling". Her name is Anna Rabinowitz. This poem makes me think of far away places. Nice job! Peace & Blessings Matthew Anish

Thankyou Matthew for your visit and comments. Acrostic is a nice form. Will try to search this book by Anna and also benefit. It is fun both to think as well as actually travel to far off places. Mohan
