An old civilized land on earth, <br />Has all climates on its path, <br />A hot summer at one part, <br />Flood on the other part, <br />Freezing snow on its top, <br />Greens of paddy fields, <br />rows of barren mountains, <br />virgin jungles, <br />ever flowing rivers, <br />dried up rivers, <br />left with sands, <br />Lakes and ponds, <br />soil of various colors, <br />scorching deserts and <br />silent plateaus, <br />What else do we need, <br />on a land? <br /> <br />We have everything, <br />to be proud of. <br />Our culture and our religion. <br />We have everything, <br />to keep as treasure. <br />Our culture and the customs. <br />We have everything, <br />that a nation really needs. <br />Our small fertile land and water. <br />We have something, <br />more than needed, <br />stomachs that are empty. <br />Worries that are plenty.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-have-everything-in-india/
