JUST HALF KILLOMETRE DOWN THIS   BRIDGE  IN AHARBAL VALLEY LIES THE GREAT WATER FALL .THIS RIVER IS KNOWN AS VESHAV AND IT JOINS VITASTA  OR  JHELUM   AT  SANGAM  BRIDGE NEAR   BIJBIHAARA  IN KASHMIR . TO THIS PHOTO I ADD A POEM OF KURDISH SHERKO BEKAS 

...

(Power )

Through the narrowest needle's eye

I can pull the thread of a poem,

even in the dark.

The fantasies,

even the slippery ones,

I can seize with the naked hand of a sentence,

just like this pen.

The biggest whale of the oceans

I can accommodate in a mugful of words

.But what will never find room in my heart or in my poems

is the lie,

big or small

.( Sherko Bekas Kurdish Poet)
