Surprise Me!

Abhinav Baruah - Virgin Solitary Hill

2014-11-10 3 Dailymotion

Despondent
Virgin solitary hill
Living next to my drawing room
I always glance through my window
Its rugged surface
Dried aquifer
And hollowness inside

Not a single spring
Not a single tree
To boast of its existence

Everything in its surrounding highlights
Its doomed authority

Perception of oblivion
Evaporated to my surprise
When I saw some excited kids
Scaled its height
And celebrated
Triumphant
