| 1. Though Simla Welcomes Me |
 |
| 2. And Mussoorie Beckons Me |
 |
| 3. But Crowded Simla Now Wakes Me |
Morning night. What a sight!
Valley deep with sides so steep
Rain doth fall as Heaven weeps
 |
| 4. Mt. Abu* Just Reminded Me |
Fallen trees, trampled pastures
Hill stations, closed chapters
Dense settlements man does make
Nature forbids, still not wakes
Rumbling traffic, multistory
Yearly landslides, what a gory?
Rising pollution, darkened waters
Raising alarm, no more laughter
All things man makes takes no time
But nature takes its own time
If creator man cannot be
Destroyer he hath no right to be
For one generation to the next
Nature has yet to care

| 5. Its Time To Reflect Upon |
* Mt. Abu is situated at a height of 5,650 ft and is the highest peak in the Aravalli Range
of Rajasthan state in western India. If one compares its vegetation to eastern part of Africa
specially Ethiopia and Eritrea one would be astonished to find the sheer similarity between
of Rajasthan state in western India. If one compares its vegetation to eastern part of Africa
specially Ethiopia and Eritrea one would be astonished to find the sheer similarity between
the two. And Alfred Wegener's Continental Drift Theory comes alive once again!
