When life in the city becomes too much to bear with its winding concrete roads its underpasses and overpasses its tall buildings and speeding cars, When I am overwhelmed by a sense of hopelessness and unrelenting stress, I retreat into the arms of nature. When life amidst people becomes too much to bear with their big black hearts and petty shriveled souls and their depraved moral values – Self-obsessed, materialistic and profane, I take refuge in the bosom of the forest. I find solace in its solitude, Among towering trees and splendorous falls With its gushing streams and magnificent mountains, The verdant fields and emerald green valleys with rivers meandering through rolling hills and lush plains. Pretty wildflowers blooming in their colorful attire peeping coyly through grass and shrubs swaying alluringly with beckoning smiles and the sound of bees humming joyfully over them soothes my insatiable craving for bliss!
