We are taught from nature.



We are taught from nature.

I turned many pages of geography.
I browsed over the Atlas,
and I had acquired ideas,
about different location.

I had no.of books.
My shelves were,
crammed with books.
I braged myself.

But when I visited many places,
I found the aesthetic beauties,
as the illustrations of books,
and the rocks as the pages.

I found the waterbodies,
much bigger and bluish,
and the greeneries more eye soothing,
than they were described in books.

when I came across with,
different people and their cultures.
I felt as if I was trying to cross,
an ocean in swim.
