Alone On The Hill Top

Alone On The Hill Top

1 min
159

It was all calm and still,

Sipping coffee I perched on top of the hill,


The dazzling sun furled in the clouds making the atmosphere pleasant,

Trying to obliterate the preceding I was pondering over the present,


Taking a nap under the shade,

Peacefully was there I laid,


The promptly heavy downpour started, 

On me, it darted,


Alone, I was there crying,

Came there a scent of something frying,


With my hungry tummy, 

I thought it was a mummy,


Following the odour, I was lost,

Snow fell and the world was frost,


Someone caressed my shoulder,

It was a monkey saving me from the boulder,


The landslide was commonest in those days,

On the laburnum, an infant monkey lays,


In the ditch of existential despair, I fell,

Who is there whom I could tell?


Unchaperoned I thrived in the rainforest,

Those have to live solo who are honest.
