The Shortcut Path!

"Unknown"
Shimla.

Hopping over the fence
In a hurry to meet her friends-
Her frock torn by the barbs!

***

Taking the shortcut path
Over a wall, climbing a tree-
Romeo meets Juliet!

    When I was visiting in California some of the fences where high cinder block.
    I was lucky I bought a local map because at some points I had to back track - there wasn't any short cut!
