Ever since I saw it first,
I fell in love,
Yes it was love at first sight,
Full of hope and delight.
I wanted to experience the real one
Feel the wind in my hair,
Hear the sound of the water,
And just be there.
Years after years I planned
To go to another land
but strange are the ways of the world
You don't get things until they are earned
Finally the dream seemed to be coming true
Just when everything was subdued
just when the other hopes were lost
Just when I had to rise
I saw .. I felt ..
I heard ..I smelt
It was no less than a dream.
Every bit just fit in flawlessly.
Content as I was
when I thought I'd be crying out happy tears
Calm I was
when I thought id be jumping out of excitement.
As I walked through
I could feel the space opening up
As I heard I figured water was just not it
It was the rustling of the leaves and the chirping of the bird
As I left the place I realised
It was something that would stay with me for life
A moment of learning
Just a moment of life
