Theme: Challenge

The Himalayas

The Himalayas
Have beckoned
Tenzing, Hillary, Bachendri Pal
And a lot others.
But I have not seen
Either the Himalayas
Or these mountaineers.
Yet, I do not grudge them
As long as my own ambitions,
Ideals and principles
Remain loftier than
The Himalayas
And the risks of avalanches,
Glaciers and snow-storms
Of hatred, jealousy and prejudices
That I encounter in my life
Are no less hazardous
To spur me into action.
