In India, waterfalls are seldom allowed to rumble along without at least one Bollywood tune in the background.

Treading with city feet
Along the rough hewn stones
Of a pathway
Made for others like me,
I watch my step
More than I do what I came looking for.

Busloads of tourists
Speaking in a language I understand
Only too well
Trip alongside
Mothers and sons in uncommon harmony
While fathers stride ahead.
