The search

The slant of the mountainsides is deceptively beautiful,

Paths that snake up,

Or perhaps a contemplative downslide! 

Also riddled with 

Straight-jacketed ridges,

Carved, 

Stony ravine,

Pretty much like life! 


To climb such terrain,

We need a guide,

To tell us when to climb 

And when to slide! 

What dangers to watch out for,

What enchantment 

To stay away from! 

For much like life,

The thrill of the trip,

Discounts the slips,

And we end up hanging

Off a cliff! 


The master allows 

Us mistakes,

For there's much more at stake!

Unexplored territory,

In all its mystery,

Is like a game of monopoly! 


Grimey faces 

And scraped knees,

Tell of lessons learnt,

Along the way,

But the glow behind 

The grind,

Tells of grace

That's always been with you 

Till you finish your race!
