In this poem, I have written about my mountain climbing experience in March, 2010.
*****
Following the plan,
Under the Spring sun,
I arrived at a mountain park,
Where nature and I become one.
.
Directed by a trial map,
I began walking uphill, non-stop,
Once in a while,
I pause to catch my breath and staring at rocks in a pile.
.
I took photos to capture the views below,
A lake, parked cars, driving path are in my view.
I would look up
To see how far I was from the mountain top.
.
There are moments of confusions,
There are sentiments of hesitations.
“Keep Walking”,
I hear my inner voice talking.
.
Near the highest spot,
I spied a young couple walking above,
Their body gesture showed their love,
How long I had been going up, nonstop, I forgot.
.
When t is all the way up hill,
It is against my natural will.
After I eventually conquer the obstacles,
I believed that these were miracles.
.
The mountain is half bare,
Pariare dogs make their stare.
Wild cows walk wild walks,
Naughty hares talk Happy talks…
