The Himalayan way of life

When observing silence dancing in and around me like a ballet performer 

When sleeping on a tune played by the raindrops at night 

When learnt to cuddle loneliness and enjoy solitude 

When panting heavily on strolls in the village and smiling at the children pass by 

When fascinatingly admiring the old wooden houses to make home someday 

When taking a nap on the terrace, looking at the magnificent waterfall and helicopters pass by 

When sleeping under the stars and watching some crazy movements at 3 AM in the sky

When cold brushing your nose gives a cheeky blush 

When feet never get warm despite of heater and double socks

When the night is gifted with a blanket of snow

Children sledge, scream and shout in the morning 

And I, make a hot cup of coffee, watch, write or rhyme at home.
