She is beauty,
she is grace,
she is elegant in every step.
She is gentle,
she breathes passion,
she is life in every thread.
She is ancient,
she is timeless,
she turns at each whisper of her name.
From time long past,
and into the future unseen,
she will hold countless stories,
within the folds of her skin.

India wears her beauty in the colorful textiles, breathtaking ornaments & inspiring stories that come alive in the streets. There is magic in the hands that work the loom, in the eyes that pore over a needle, in the brushstrokes that paint life. And yet few things can sum it all up, can capture the essence in a box.
