DILEMMA
The holiday travel
experience is thrilling,
Green Hills Tea
Garden fresh feeling,
Gentle slopes narrow
the path in the maze,
The silence quietude
visible amaze, (1)
Far below a blue
stream, river flows,
Scenic place, Lord's
paradise owes,
Proceed on narrow
routes, enjoying,
Caught sight of a
person yet moving, (2)
Matted hair, auburn,
torn clothes, tall,
Heavy baggage behind
bearded all,
Refused to talk to us
and looked away sad,
He was silent until
evening came forward, (3)
He was smoking at an
old monastery,
We overtook him and
reached a mystery,
Looked a million
stars dark night wish,
Profound peace
silence tea cup relish, (4)
Nothing is visible
far below darkness,
Perception of my
existence impresses me,
No more the world
exists, I survived,
The nomad I saw
earlier, if perceived, (5)
Mischievous thought
looked at stars,
Thousand missiles
falling cities scars,
It is astonishing to
see a comet-lighted path,
Compared to missile
devastate wrath, (6)
In complete darkness,
people are dying,
Dilemma human mind
unholy defying,
Death everywhere, why
it happens,
Hatred rules the
human heart tightens, (7)
Felt perspirations
fear, thinking of war near,
Sad human life
history fiery massacre,
Cried that night in
the hotel room sadly,
Opened the window
cold breeze readily, (viii)
Dawn break bright
sunshine glorious,
Packed my luggage
mood humorous,
The forgotten feeling
of the past night looks,
Dilemma trapped not
me more crop up, (9)
Down below the
airport landscape view,
Intact metropolis,
busy human renews,
Dilemma captures at a
lonely place probe,
May humans solve
warfare time resolve. (10)
