The Super Gardner

The Super Gardner

P K Routray

The Himalayan mountain terrains

picturesque, they are in summers, winters and rains

Inaccessible are many of them to common man

but in search of wisdom and bliss, there sages spend their whole life span

Flowers, fruits, plants and animals of myriad class and color

decorate the terrains varying with seasons dancing with nature.

Glances, if one the beauty of flowers decorating the valleys,

believe would the hard core atheist in the God of his grandma stories.

The super Gardner is He nurturing the garden of creation,

laurel and pride claim the man needlessly saying that “I have done”.

Here the seeds are pressed and buried in the season of snow,

after the snow melts, with congenial climate the plants to bear flowers, grow.

With bent knees, folded hands, bowed heads and awe struck hearts

to the super Gardner only we surrender and salute for His this astounding arts.

(N. B These pictures are of flowers which bloom in the unassailable places in the Himalayan mountain terrains. One has to wak across many difficult terrains to reach such places)
