My Visit to Rann of Kutch

With New Year approaching

I went to the Rann of Kutch

Where the sun is scorching

But I went in the winter, so not as much

This white salty Marshy land has ancient roots

Due to the clever harappan civilization

Buried in Dholavira boots

That is why it is a good station

I left in the morning at seven

Through the road to heaven

A white, salty desert on both sides

Birds migrating from far and wide

Between Dholavira and Dhordo The Rann,

There is a black mountain from where looking at border is fun

On the white desert

I enjoyed flying kites and a spectacular sunset

Then I went to Bhuj, where I went back to 2001

And saw an interesting earthquake museum

So, that’s the Rann of Kutch

It is extreme but brilliant as such
