My marvelous country <br />Welcomes the entry <br />Of good gracious virtues <br />Of different cultures <br />Of different countries <br />Some new and some old <br />Some precious like gold <br />Some shining like silver <br />Some pure like water <br />My country India <br />Adopts the idea <br />From far and wide <br />From inside and outside <br />Before virtues, we bow <br />And withstand the blow <br />Blow of evil <br />And keeps herself still <br />Like a strong hill <br />Shashikant Nishant Sharma ‘Sahil' <br />===©SNS===23 February 2003===@Patna===<br /><br />Shashikant Nishant Sharma<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-marvelous-country/
