Vermont, You Live in Me, is Green


I whispered to myself by holding emerald
Is there any enrapturing land in the world?
I closed my eyes and fell in dream
I saw mountains that were green
The beauty of the mountains
A state of fountains
In the surroundings of pine trees
Dancing birds and maple bees
All singing a mystic song of scene
Vermont, you live in me, is green.

Nothing is so daring, nothing so beautiful.
As your lake where upon
Wind plays the melodious song.
Sun smiles when it sets
And the golden rays, land gets
Dipped in the colors of innocence
Paragon of life with no offence
Simple and charming people live within
Vermont, you live in me, is green.

In doing so, it captures human experiences in their own voices and identifies multiple factors based on their perceptions that can help to create a secure and healthy environment. The research unveils the discriminatory practices and gender differences that create violence against youth (particularly female youth) in cultural, social, economic and politic...
