Breathless
I could not believe it, as I stood on a road, so high,
Ten thousand feet above the sea level and felt to fly;
Thin roads, like jet plane traces, converged, into an uphill -
‘Gravity Defying Hill Ladakh’, known for acute chill...!
The story, I heard of the magnetic hill, was, unique,
Its magnetic force pulls cars upwards, eye-witnesses speak;
I stood speechless as the driver stopped his car, yet, it moved,
When vehicles drove, like ghosts, engineless, the truth was proved...!
There was a mystic path, Once upon a time, the myths say,
Men and women lived blamelessly, and reached heaven this way;
I stood, wonderstruck, and experimented with each grass blade,
Wonders flew in each molecule as though the heavens swayed...!
Observing each moving automobile, I stood breathless,
The magnetic hill stood solemn and serene, as deathless;
Each small leaf, laced with graces of frost, waved in victory,
Each nucleus of dust, therein, seemed benedictory...!
I adore the wonders of the creator in each dust,
Thinking, hearing, and witnessing, in him I ever trust;
Each creature of nature, indeed, is divinity filled,
In breathlessness stand each creature, physique-psyche core thrilled...!
