Some span of time gets imprinted in memory without a replay
button
All we do is revisit the memory lane with a smile &
goose bumps
It all started like a Journey rich beyond dreams
The initial thrill to be on time, the speculation about
teammates
The initial DJ, to crazy ride on bus top & the pain in
the a**,
The first sight of snow clad peak shining bright in moonlit
sky
& the thrill within to conquer it over the time
The first steep climb, the breathlessness, the pushing up
hard
All got tougher owing to the continuous laugh
There was intoxication in the air that made every moment too
precious to be missed
The rush in the chilling cold to watch the 1st
ray of sun to singing aloud to the setting sun
To lay down shivering on the cold exterior & watch the
consortium of stars twinkling all over
There is a beauty in watching them appear, making shapes,
tracing them fall
Till the moon overpowers & protect them from the
unsatisfying eyes of the earthly beings
The sound of whispers of water from beyond the fog covered
valleys
The walk through the trees breaking the silent secrets of
the jungle
To the sight of mountains half covered with forest & the
never ending meadows there after
The 1st camp sight, the bonfire, the initial
struggle with sleeping mats
Later it became the comfortable Grey tent, with a hanging
torch, 3 spoons & random chit chat
Ofcourse the tough gets tougher unless you have friends
motivating each other
Diverting focus with random poses & selfies; talking
about unachievable toofani passion
The final climb, the late start, the passion & the
foolishness all reflecting a mixed emotion
No words can justify the beauty of the landscape that
unfolded as we moved up far above the cloud
Ofcourse the serenity & peace will remain within me
More than that, I earned few moments, bonds, laughs, craziness
mixed with the beauty of Roopkund
The perfect combination that gave me a lifetime of memories to smile upon
