Stairway to Heaven on earth

Deep amidst the evergreen forest, facing the overwhelming height of the mountains
There is a calm silence although the rain gods show their powers by downpour & thunder,
The greenery is omnipresent, ‘touch the ground without touching us’
Challenge the intimidating tress arranged like a military squadron facing a war.
The drizzle makes their way through the leaves and land on the soft mud,
They seem delirious & excited to make way to the ultimate quiet destination..

The sorrow, the misery, the stress, the chaos, the ambitions, aspirations, the setbacks,
Soothe me, show me the way and lead me to my destination ‘oh Lotus Lake’.

You mystify me, your beauty enchants me as if am in the trance of a mirage.
Roots deep below in the swamp mud yet your beauty floats above the serene water
Throne of the gods & goddesses, Inspiration of the Egyptian legends,
The day starts from the sun rising to watch the glorious sight of the blue lotus blossom.
Frogs sitting on your huge hearted leaves are singing your praise, do u have a little space for me?
You’ve stolen my sleep, the glow in your white petals have spread light into my gloomy day.

Even the moon is spellbound in your reflections on the evanescence ripples that radiate beauty
Heaven on earth, the heart of the forests, if there is such a place,
 It is the Lotus Lake!!
