Queen of Hills Lgt

Alluring elegance of Simla, the queen of hills,
Morning pleasant breeze, at night gives chills !

Snow clad mountains, silvery charming shine,
Tall Deodar trees , dense forest , also few Pine,

Aromatic flowers garnish nature's platter, vividly grow,
Rivers run smooth , at times exhibit a turbulent flow !

Soulful scenic marvel, must artistry come alive,
No artist or poet here can ever fail to thrive,

Green valley on one side, hilly serpentine road,
As summer sun peaks, it is my heavenly abode !
