Buddha’s home … 1707-2k16
Oh dear, I wish to go visit Nepal
Not British lakes or Niagara falls
Not cobbled paths of Julian Alps
Nor far off lands with tangy kelps
Want to set my eyes on peaks
Those are sights my soul seeks
The grandest of them to behold
On which I’v been for ages sold
Want to see Everest and its glory
Its legends spirits and its story
Shiny mount with a creamy top
Standing tall amid lollipops
To tucked away blue glacial lakes
Where geese are seen tracing wakes
Winding paths along vertical cliffs
To trek therein and flowers sniff
To meet and greet a friendly lot
Their spotless hearts without a blot
I want to savor Buddha’s home
Muse and reflect like a puny gnome
Feel the caress of gentle breeze
Oh’ I want to go there please!
