Pinnacle- Arjun Das

A blur of light over cloud nine

caused hindrance to eyes

view from here is colourful and nice

clouds like the mountain and deep blue sky

all are a picturesque sight.

But no, the mind yearned for more

as it was all the routine sights.

Yellow light flickered downhill,

games of mind unknown to heart

and the journey was set

for the glittering light.

Extolled and cheered the people nearby

as the conqueror descended

with spirit so high.

Just when the heart began to give high five,

the mind portrayed

meagre reflection of light.

Journey to the zenith seemed far away,

mind had given up to make the climb.

sheer will surpassed

and began the stride.

People nearby didn't cheer and bow

as all were just part of the whole

only to remind,

Never to stop till I reach the height.
