INTERDISCIPLINARY PROJECT

You recently visited Andaman and Nicobar Islands with your family and were mesmerized with
the serene beauty of the place. From beaches, to sea waves, to greenery, to architecture-
everything was breathtakingly beautiful. It reminded you of the poem Leisure from your
Literature textbook. The poet says that the world is full of natural beauty, but us, humans, are
always running after materialistic pleasures and have no time to just be satisfied in the lap of
nature.

Write a letter to your friend, who is also your classmate, telling him/ her about the experience
you had and how you related it with the message of the poet in the poem “Leisure”.
