Nongjrong

In Nongjrong hills, where clouds do roam,

A hidden gem, a traveler's tome.

Where Umngot's river whispers low,

And sun-kissed valleys in splendor glow.

Upon the hill, where shadows fade,

The Nongjrong View Point, where dreams cascade.

Before the dawn, when darkness wanes,

The sky ablaze with fiery veins.

With each sunrise, a symphony unfolds,

As misty veils the landscape holds.

Green hills stretch far, in gentle sway,

In Nongjrong's beauty, time drifts away.

From Shillong's heart, a journey start,

Through winding roads and nature's art

To Nongjrong's haven, where peace reside,

And beauty's secrets are softly bide.

So come, dear traveler, venture near,

To Nongjrong's realm, without a fear.

Where clouds embrace, and mountain sings

In Nongjrong's heart, let your soul take wings.
