Journey From Plains To Mountain Poem by Savita Tyagi

Journey From Plains To Mountain



Moving west ward from plains to mountains
Ariel view from airplane's window changes
Ether holds a majestic cumulonimbus above
And a spread of puffed cloud sheet below
I want to wrap myself up in those cottony sheets
And be lost for ever in the celestial serenity.

Earth beneath looks fascinating
Divided in parcels of all shapes and colors
Circles, squares and rectangles of
Green forest and golden farmland
Long serpentine rivers and grey streets
All disappear soon in limitless space.

As the winged big bird ascends higher
The grand panorama of tranquil azure and white
Stretches out to infinity in full view
Towards the end of two hour journey
As plane descends it all starts to change
An intense thunderstorm builds quickly.

Huge black clouds quickly rise
Cascading rain creates a curtain
Of rolling waves at far end of sky
On other side the sun's resplendent rays
Sends spectacular colors of gold
Upon earth's varied landscape below.

Inside we start to feel weather tribulation
A wing of plane takes a dip tilting us all to one side
Young ones shrieked in fear and excitement
The pilot decides to abandon the landing speed
To ascend higher and move away from thunderstorm
The hostess gives us an update to console.

We stayed in air a little longer holding our breaths
Fearful of lurking danger hidden in bad weather
Yet in awe of nature's magnificent splendor
Finally a short distant away pilot finds a safer sky
In a gorgeous view of double rainbow we land safely
Giving our hero pilot a thrilling applause of admiration.

A nicely written poem on a possible air crash and a narrow escape. All is well that ends well.

Nature can, in its might, Give us a lil fright, But at the end of each night, There is always light! May the light be with you always! Naren
