Panwila

 

Many a summers ago, when the world was younger

A young girl skipped along the roads of Panwila

she, a carefree butterfly fluttering blissfully 

lost in the magical universe of the little old town

Purest water gurgling down crystal like streams

Clove trees swaying  whispering in the breeze

Indeed, a paradise in the mortal world

A drop of heaven, into one  curled

Evergreen tea estates in misty mornings

the cozy aroma of Ceylon tea brewing at dawn

Mountains rising guarding the little old town of Panwila

Cascading waterfalls singing the age old story of mortal paradise

A woman many summers later, when the world had aged yonder

walking slowly slowly down the lane of memory

Thousand miles and years part, her soul still dreams

of the little old town of Panwila bathed in silvery moon lit beams

A poignant trip down memory lane to the roads of Panwila covering a lifetime. From child to old age. I enjoyed the ambience of the setting, truly beautiful imagery of mountains and cascading waterfalls in summertime. This poem leaves Panwila and that old lady on my mind. Nicely expressed work.

Pretty. My only, and personal comment, is that she's more lost in the blissful ignorance of youth than location. But again, only my view.
