This anthology is a memory of the Western Ghats at their magical best – when dry hills turn emerald green, clouds feel timeless atop ancient forts, and every trail becomes a living dream. Spanning a coastline from Bordi and Daman to Tarkarli and Goa, these poems return to ordinary moments of friendship, travel and quiet discovery, and find in them a richness that lingers long after the journeys have passed.

More than a travelogue, this anthology is about memory—how certain places never quite leave us, and how the rains return within us, year after year. A celebration of the Sahyadri and its enduring spirit, this is a book for anyone who has ever felt transformed by a place they once called their own.
