India

India
With its loud crowded streets
Never hushed or too secrete

India
Just the name
Raging like a flame

India
Children running about
Cries of joy and shouts

India
Colors and scents everywhere
Alive and living in the air

India 
Family always in sight
Never lonely any night

India 
In my heart
Never to go away or part

Brings back vivid memories of the one time I was fortunate enough to visit. The scintillating sensuousness of the "sub-continent" and the loving life-filled laughter of those who live there... you evoked them all in this short sweet write... Very nice, Rachelle, thanks for this one!
