Trekking Poem by Farina Afrin Malik

Trekking



There once was a little girl
She was up on the highest peak of the mountain
Surrounded by love, she was blessed
Touched by the hand of God
She wore a smile that encircled all in its warmth
Her humble feelings made her beautiful
For almost a year everything was perfect
Only happiness surrounded her
Then as the year came to a close
And her loved ones left
She sought new companionship
Still afraid, the remnants of past love gave her confidence
She was smart and it showed
So she made it for a few months
But little did she know,
she was going astray
Without the right guidance
Her new companions led her on a path to destruction
Not their’s but her’s,
Still she imagined it to be a yellow brick road
False hopes and dreams drowned her
Until she crash landed
From that high peak she slowly fell, to the foot of the mountain
How was she to get back up?
To regain the lost confidence
For now she had no idea
But one precarious step at a time she’d make the treacherous climb
Hoping to one day make it again

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The title may seem a little misleading. Trekking as we all know by definition, is a long arduous journey on foot. In case of my poem, its a metaphorical journey of rebuilding confidence and loving oneself again. Hope you like it!

read your comments at the end.... and i agree. the title of the poem had lured me to a different level being an intrepid traveler i was drawn to it...as a possible travel saga.... but your lines are nice even otherwise...they speak of effort of hope of a better tomorrow and the will to improve. lovely liked
