River deep & mountain high
terraces cut, ecstasy of the eye
wrapped in star-speckled cloak of night
the towering Himalayas lie in sight
Oh! Purple Mountain majesty
Cleanse the mind of all tragedy
arise from dreams
that seem
to only hint at the Himalayan splendor awaiting
anticipating
one little American girl
waits in wonder on top of the world
monsieur soleil
starts the day
divinely inspired
no ticket required
orange beams shoot forth into the sky
simultaneous with the rooster's cry
& I
agog & in awe with the firmament's display
in May
perched on a railing watching rapt
To the sun's awakening the sky adapts
Emanating an ephemeral emboldened blaze
The mountains & sun in impassioned embrace
Nagarkot...ambrosia place
The mountain glows; the sun goes
& I know
identically idyllic not found on Earth
serendipity, mystical magic & mirth
