Lord of Isolation

Nights in white satin play as I’m looking at Vermont fall
The mesmerizing beauty touches my evolving soul
The trees like poplar, willow, birch and linden stand tall
Their boughs of leaves seem cascading like mountain waterfall

Hawk travels through horizon above corn fields of Indiana
The peregrine falcon does the same above African savanna
In the future blue wind runner will do that above Himalayan nirvana
And lord knows who will be doing it in later era

In the arctic sea
Many broken glaciers head south to meet their destiny
The sunset is violet and soul’s pigment in its majesty
The orange or gold soft clouds stretch for more than infinity

The melting glaciers form mists above the sea each of different hue
But in case of one glacier emerald sea water is in strange contrast with its royal blue
Like a mirror’s surface is ice on the glacier that’s burning blue
The that lustrous surface reflects souls bound in sunset too

But as all glaciers melt to their foundation
This one does not and in that lies its salvation
Who is on this glacier sailing abyss bewilders vastest imagination
It is defiant and magnificent visage of lord of isolation
