Stop at Beas

June 24, 2015 | By Sohini Choudhury

A haunting, riveting poetic narrative about an awestruck traveler finding her way in the surreal blue mountains, the rocks and the trees of the landscape.

“The rocky edged steppes Blue mountains and beams”

Between the willow
And the aspen
And the red hibiscus tree
Where the green current flows
I remain forever free.
The rocky edged steppes
Blue mountains and beams
Their white blossomed tendrils,
Yellow saplings
And streams.
Branches spread white
On a soft autumn night
Gathered around
Red, orange and white.
Every morning
The whistle passes me by
I look for it
Not knowing why.
