Summer Solstice 13 |
Ribbons of
sunlight sprawl over the mountains like a golden cobweb and at the other end of
the gulley a rainbow paints a Tawang slope. Ah just another day in paradise,
those sweet moments before the monsoon bursts in your eye. But now it’s a
pastel lotus, a breathing void engulfed by breathing mountains. On an oaky
ridge Asiatic Elves play hide and seek with the trail so I plop at a lost
Chorten shaded by two regal cypresses. An angry silver horse brays and sputters
at me as I slumber against the mossy stupa, left to ponder the series of
coincidences that led me to that very spot atop that very mountain near that
very ornery horse watching clouds expand into the ether. Later a raven almost
steals my face off my head and I am greeted by a plethora of pixies at
Tsangma’s brokedown palace. This is how your author entered the portal into
summer 2013!
YOU UNDERSTAND...
