Within You Naini(Tal) Poem by Thoisquare Tongbram

Soft music tunes my ears.
Chilly air breezes past my hair.
With the warm shine everywhere
And clouds above without a care.

It’s our journey en ‘cloud nine’ route.
But the paths I’ve walked through,
When I retrace them back
Along the memory stained lanes
Will only remind me so much similarly
Of a place I long for insanely.

Of sceneries that eases away pains,
Of pine trees and the mountains,
Of fern plants and narrow winding terrains
Of long rides and the soft rain.

It’s like the journey to that place.
It’s like getting a lil’ bit of solace.
‘Cos deep within you Naini(tal)
I’ve found my very own Mani(pur) .
