Remembering India Fondly Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Remembering every detail in India, wishing I were back
there and walking around Kolkata and Cochin, having al-
so enjoyed Devikulam and the resorts we stayed in.

Peaceful, very remote and filled with the serenity of
nature, and past history, slipping along back waters of
India in a boat for the three of us.

We made our way down the river and to the wide expanse
of the biggest lake I've ever seen, houseboats slowly
cruising along.

People waving and smiling at us, a little watery neigh-
borhood compiled with just this one white American woman
and many native Indians.

Feeling blessed, having the time of my life, loving my
friend and his son who have taken the time to treat me
to these fantastic wonders in India.

Memories made that I will never forget throughout this
life of mine, so perfect and attuned to the peace and
serenity of my soul here in India.
