As I travelled, among the hills,
sometimes walk, or use vehicles,
navigating through traffic, daily rush,
seeking the nature, in the outskirts,
for the beauty, that my heart aspired,
the floating clouds,over the mountains,
spreading of mists, enveloping the forests,
the running streams flowing below,
or waterfalls from the heights...
Every scenery was mesmerizing,
as if I am witnessing nature's glory,
the visitors watched them awestruck,
capturing its beauty on their cameras.
I was amazed, by the beautiful display,
wandering through different locations,
yet, there's something, caught my attention,
the greenery of the surrounding places.
For, they grew, along the hedges,
among the moss, ferns and bushes,
accompanying the native wild plants,
blooming, were flowers of multi-colors.
From my memories, where the foliage,
like a tiny bouquet,these shrubs displayed,
their beauty, an array of vibrant shades,
of yellow, pink and fuchsia red.

As a kid, I used to visit,
when I explored, childhood locality,
forgotten, faded, from memory lanes,
again encountered, a pleasant surprise...
Like being welcomed, by hill and valleys.
