Where does it lead, only the path can tell
City Beautiful, India - 2022
Captivating the subtle beauty of alleys and pathways
Down the path's lead, an alley lies, Only known by a few handful
An easy shortcut for the wise, A definite route for the fool
Empty blocks pampered in ruins, Grow dahlia shrubs in feeble soil
Yet cherished by passing humans, As they perceive in gleeful toil
Click, clack. Tip, tap. Echoing the narrow pathway
Click, clack. Tip, tap. Click, clack. Tip, tap. Reverberating the walkway
An easy shortcut for the wise, A definite route for the fool
Empty blocks pampered in ruins, Grow dahlia shrubs in feeble soil
Yet cherished by passing humans, As they perceive in gleeful toil
Click, clack. Tip, tap. Echoing the narrow pathway
Click, clack. Tip, tap. Click, clack. Tip, tap. Reverberating the walkway
