Nepal

Nepal Nepal I know little of this country nestling Among colossal mountains It used to be a kingdom, but the king was so Autocratic that he lost the job. Later on, I have this from memory, one of the princes Shot the royal family as they were sitting down for tea. This didn`t help him to become a king, I think he is a monk now and get fed by the poor. Nepal is also a place where Pakistan and India sometimes Shot at each other when not freezing to death At high altitude in summer uniforms A recent earthquake brought Nepal to the news for a day They have been promised help to rebuild Kathmandu As usual in such cases, the money gets syphoned off and little Reach the people of Nepal. To whom who cares Nepal is also the birthplace of Buddhism.
