TRUTH written in Poetic Lines

Earth has its natural features; mountains, valleys, ocean, rivers, lakes, trees, plants, flowers etc. It has inhabitants; Man, animals, insects, birds etc. Man being supreme creature, introduced architecture to provide shelter for him initially and with the passage of time he brought it to the elegance where it is today. I would like to carry out his legacy with the intent of Romancing the Earth with Nothing but the Truth written in Poetic lines. My humble approach to create is to carve out the TRUTH into being from not being, to stay honest to the site and be noble in the cause. Through my investigation, my objective is to establish a life style with a serene environment. A place where one is tranquil to think about the higher values of life, A place to lose one's SELF and find HIMSELF, to serve his purpose in the universe which will bring real joy to his mind, enrichment to his soul and contentment to his body.
