The Utopia Untrodden

Have seen an utopian lane, amidst the thicket, latent In the abode of the clouds, in the lap of the tranquil wilderness, far far away from the mundane mist! A wheezing sparsely inhabited hamlet, Khonoma, a centuries- old settlement, so green, so serene! Its' pristine unsullied views, lush wilderness, verdant bushes, aromatic wild blooms, resplendent orchids, rippling rills, are untouched and sacred! The Angami tribes, the thorpes' dwellers lead an uncustomary simple life, crammed with ancient, timeless traditions and practices, with nature's absolute accord! The unique panaromic cultivation practice, terrace farming, sprawling on the slopes makes the very sight elating! Look, the remote richest biodiversity region is twirling with the endemic scented native flora and fauna, the boscage are cramming with untamed wild colourful fruits! The revered cultural bird, the grey-billed Tragpon, is intoning from the bushes, making the milieu frolic! Myriads of colourful birds are migrating to nestle in the sacred bushes of the mystic rills! The pellucid drops from the misty mesas of nearby cascades are playing with the colourful pebbles! Far from the pandemic, the cherubic hilly terrain is bustling with cerulean rills, shrouded by tropical rain forests and stepped paddy fields! How finite are the rustic folks' wants and needs, the primitive shanties to dwell, the crystal cascades to quench, the crops of the golden fields to feed the mouths, the vibrant fiestas with nature's changing seasons to celebrate! A paragon of men and nature in absolute harmony, is lying placidly, the transcendental picturesque tableland, Khonoma, the wheezing green hamlet, an utopia untrodden to bless the naive natives of the far flung highland! " Sometimes in quest of no man's Utopia, we may miss the existing unleashed Utopia in proximity, yet untrodden " Quote by poet November 11th 2021 Contest: " U" contest, New Poems Only Sponsored by: Constane La France
