At the very beginning

(Poetic memories of Mauritius)

Jeewansing Ramlugun

Fallen head over heels

in love with nature

at the tenderest of times

of life , was of another order,

the purest of emotions

sensed, without perplexities,

with devotion unquestioned,

joys altogether unalloyed

felt whilst sojourning

and raptly surveying

head-turning tapestries

of lushness and luxuriance,

all still adhering in memory

with remarkable endurance.
