Contemplative solitude atop
the many mountains I scale,
unravel humbling experiences.
Overcoming the challenges of the
jagged precipices of life
liberates my imprisoned mind.
The trepidations and apprehensions
of the arduous ascent, give way to
a symbiotic balance between the body and mind.
I acknowledge my growth from beneath to beyond,
and appreciate the journey of “becoming”!

Thanks Sadje for the wonderful pic prompt. Often we focus on the end result ignoring our journey of reaching there, and the growth we have experienced.

Radhika, a beautiful poetic response to the photo prompt; I feel tranquility following the search to this ‘becoming’ and oh, how we all long for that ‘symbiotic balance between the body and mind.’ Well done!
