Exploring The Marvels Poem by Vidi Writes

Exploring The Marvels

Rating: 5.0


When I think of you,
I feel an awesome sensation
I tried strewing them all with you,
Pearls picked from heart’s adulation.

All attempts failed to make it a trinket
I still try dropping those gems
In this poem of my heart
To explore those marvels of art.

Massive fall of Niagara Falls, straddling the border
Grand Canyon gorge created by Colorado River
Zoom and length of White and Blue Nile River
Diversity of life, Coral Reefs System at Coral River.

The Smoke that Thunders at Victoria Falls
Buffeted water turning into Mist at Angel Falls
Love of ‘Naipi’ for ‘Taroba’ and creation of Iguazu Falls
Hiram Bingham’s exploration - Lost City of the Incas.

Study of Charles Darwin at Galapagos Islands
Shield Volcano - Emi Koussi, of Tibesti Mountains
Four faced peak of ‘Matterhorn’ Mountain at Alps
Elevation and weight of Eiffel Tower at Paris.

Quarry stones and wonder of huge Great Pyramid
Art and Culture, renowned applause of Bali Island
Stone Plateaus of Sahara, Salt Flats and Dunes of Sand
Fortifications of China Wall, an architectural surround.

The Forbidden City - a Collection of wooden structures
Mountains of Ifugao and its carved in Terraces
Elliptical amphitheatre of ‘Colosseum’ at Rome.
Sacredness of Emerald Buddha at Thai Temple.

Thickness of Amazon Rainforest and its Moist
Classical style, Khmer architecture of Angkor Wat
Endless Plains and migration of Serengeti
Cold, wind, arid of Antarctica Continent.


Ladakh - Sparsely populated, land of high passes
Great valley of Kashmir and Great Himalayas
Religious harmony at Golden Temple
The secrets at Konark Sun Temple.

Blessings of Goddess Ganga and Gangetic plains
Ajanta, Ellora and badami -The cave temples
Ahmed Lahauri’s dedication to Taj Mahal
Countless enormous beaches of Arabian Sea


Beloved, the list is unending
The flow of rhyme is evaporating
Forgive me for not adding all of them
My ardent feelings are still at their helm.

Now, one last snippet please,
Here it is, I have to put the best grease.
My deep thoughts on you, take their shapes -
When will we set off to explore those marvels? : -)

All the world's marvels and the last line shows the true meaning of the poem, the marvel and wonder of being with the loved one. I truly hope this wish comes true.

Beautifully … clean feelings are decorated those by impression which it is personified in poetic dreams … will flavour with intentions …
