WHITEWATER

 




WHITE WATER

 

 

Implodes aspiration fragmented,

Summer vacation plans planted,

Decanted juicy proposal console,

Shifted to springtime dates sole, (1)

 

Children shattered listen to alert,

Singing for a happy vacation resort,

Confess budget limited silent life,

Innocence plays at best from strife, (2)

 

Planning sessions endless magic,

Proposal counter planning tragic,

Amused kids fight out calculated,

Places, college vacation concluded,(3)

 

Siblings dream, scenic the resorts,

Dreamland, night provides, escorts,

Whispering, hope, desire, interlace,

Personal wish items, purse grace, (4)

 

Took leave from office to pack goods,

Advance ticket booked win moods,

Colleges closed vacation holidays,

Packing well baggage waits for frays, (5)

 

The flight was short and thrilling enough,

Glue to the window, look down, laugh,

Reached airport kids running hell,

Stationery shop buffet counter yell, (6)

 

Their mom with baggage, alert wait,

Children bought enjoy dish quiet,

Now travel to railway station soon,

Chair car coach, air-cooled a boon, (7)

 

Slept kids so soon tired surprised,

We couple dozed mildly surmised,

Disturb children, Ghats bending,

Steep slope mountain track ring, (viii)

 

Tunnels a few thick forests below,

Looked at happy kids, speed slow,

Observed their pleasure, curiosity,

Forgot exam after vacation laxity, (9)

 

Journey up the hills to the valley,

Ended curiosities increased tally,

A lot of apprehensions, bright faces,

Parents enjoyed prompted grace, (10)

 

The train halted whistle alarm fine,

Sparsely crowded station shine,

We moved by taxi to the hotel late,

Had dinner retired to bed debate, (11)

 

Kids declined to sleep to gossip,

Tearful reminded past worship,

Papa was poor, clerical job, life,

Inspired us to study face strife, (12)

 

We struggled, wish to succeed,

How my children lucky exceed,

Morning, at dawn, alerted kids,

They got up refreshed, eyelids, (13)

 

Quiet wait for intense surprise,

In foam, the rubber raft, sunrise,

Speechless, viewed whitewater,

Children romantic proud swear, (14)

 

Belted tightly guide assisted fit,

Enjoyed children, played fright,

Rapids, river is swift white foam,

Water sprays kids wet now loam, (15)

 

Rocks countless swirling water,

Vacation visiting to whitewater,

Back home, kids hugged tightly,

Thanks, wish exam warn lightly. (16)
