This leaf; so complete in itself; Is only part of a tree. And this tree; so complete in itself; Is only part of the mountain. And the mountain runs down to the sea. And the sea; so complete in itself; Rests like a raindrop On the hand of God. Ruskin Bond's Book of Verse brings together the poetry of one of India's best-loved writers. This charming collector's edition is a treasury of poems on love and nature; travel; humour and childhood; and will be a lasting source of delight to readers.
