Karnataka

Karnataka I shall call her, our mother, our earth Guests we are, but are we just, are we her worth To look out any window on any given day Weathers of all sorts simply blows ones breath away To argue with her intentions, to her we can not preach She's so uncomplicated so beautiful, so out of reach This delicate flame of desire so calm after the rains To us humans it's strange behaviour, for all we do is complain Do we think her time stands still, this heart of stone We are here at her right time, we should bow to her throne http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/music-4.php

This is a nice set of rhyming couplets. They collectively convey a great deal of quality descriptiveness.

We humans complain far too much, James. Mother Nature has been so generous. A very moving poem, dear friend. You know I feel the same way you do when it comes to the environment. Love, Carolyn

OH, I was thinking this was a word meaning "earth" and then I saw Tahera say it was a state in INdia. WAs that your meaning, to describe this state? It's lovely and shows your love of the planet. LUv, Andrea

Hello James, Just when I think I have everything here under control "She" jumps right up and makes me see that I am but a tiny piece of fluff in her otherwise Gigantic state of being Wonderful my friend, as always you have captured this with golden words of your very own making. As Always, Shar
