I Love India

A JEWELRY STORE NAMED
INDIA

If you hold this

Dazzling emerald

Up to the sky,

It will shine a billion

Beautiful miracles

Painted

From the tears

Of the most High.

Plucked

From the lush gardens

Of a yellowish-green

Paradise,

Look inside this hypnotic gem

And a kaleidoscope of

Titillating, soul-raising 
Sights and colors

Will tease and seduce

Your eyes

And mind.

Tell me, sir.

Have you ever heard

A peacock sing?
Hold your ear
To this mystical stone

And you will hear

Sacred hymns

Flowing

To the vibrations

Of the

Perfumed
Wind.
