My Kind of Town

In the world of our reality Abounds too much bitterness Let us come to Thimpu For dews of peace and grace Green hills surround the cool town All day long multitude of birds Blue shadow envelopes our mind Before Buddha swords calm down Happy faces of children and grown ups Handsome flute in their eyes No much hustle and bustle Peace-laced liquor in small wine cups Hill allures the amorous cloud Clouds embrace the hungry hill Lovely lovemaking plays out Crazy turns our cerebral quill The town sits amidst the vales In clusters on various slopes Cottages full of light blue tales Life in crimson hopes The capital of Bhutan Thimpu, the town where Braids of moonlit woman Sway in moon-mixed air ___________________________________________________________________ 5/1/2016
