Poem
Sweetheart Darjeeling Three hours of walk uphill from the town, The woods grew thicker and the world down, Heart panting – eyes floating in the wooden beaker, Oh! It was dark yet darker-deep yet deeper! I heard Frost calling and recalled the “snowy evening” The sky still silent-a colorful sunrise brought the morning! ! Which way shall I go was the question, Shall I obey the lessons learnt or opt to learn? No second thought-forgetting all I went with the flow, A joy in my heart the early morning seemed to glow, It was the bliss of the woods-the hills of Darjeeling, Orchids dancing and the streams began to sing, Valleys-trees, birds – bees , everything, In your heart – sweetheart Darjeeling! ! Every step I took- I took with regret, Every angle was so perfect-the heaven had set, A wish from my heart – oh queen Darjeeling, The songs of your streams-let me also sing, Rapids-waterfalls, tunnels-iceballs, everything, In your heart-sweetheart Darjeeling! ! Gazed and gazed-amazed was I, Amazement-excitement that none could hide, A magic in your leaves-oh majestic Darjeeling, The rattle with breeze-in mist playing, The white cymbidium-the pink dendrobium, everything, In your heart-sweetheart Darjeeling! ! I felt the mist on my face-the cold on my skin, Those virgin woods hidden-high, diverse yet so akin, Those narrow winding streams-oh darling Darjeeling, So lively-the multi colored birds bathe and sing, Teesta blue-Rangeet green-everything, In your heart -sweetheart Darjeeling! ! Oh Darjeeling, so majestic-magical and serene, Philosophies all at one end-alone you win, For the silent words you speak-you are teacher, Miles one must walk but never in his leisure, A day of leisure in the lap of Darjeeling, Bathes your soul-spirit, everything! ! Miles I’ve walked-all promises kept-regret nothing, Oh! Revered Frost I think you’d not seen Darjeeling! ! Saket Suman
