Still we are in wonder, <br>how at sixty, we reached <br>the serene retreat of Lord Siva! <br>A colossus earthquake in times of yore <br>had caused these seven hills one over the other.<br>This Kailash of the South lures the pilgrims<br>who climb over a flight of stone-steps, <br>using a torch in the dead of night, <br>and a bamboo stick to keep the aged steady.<br>What a boycott of reptiles and animals wild<br>in that month of Chitra-fullmoon(May) ! <br>It was sweaty to traipse upwards, <br>but our will to be on top of the hills pulled us up. 24</div><div style="margin:10px 0">When we were ascending over the fourth hill, <br>the stars seemed nearer and nearer.<br>A bath in the chill-stream flowing down the sixth hill, <br>relieved our pain and refreshed us to go up.<br>A slip in your trek on the narrow track<br>would push you down to the deep of the earth.<br>When the mid-day heat boils your feet, <br>you can walk over the sward along the sides.<br>Pony, dolly, rover-car or winch is not there; <br>Your bare-foot walk would break your hip.<br>When you step on small sharp stones, <br>you would scream in pain.<br>Ascent and Descent are arduous in these hills! 37</div><div style="margin:10px 0">When we slumped down to the base of the hills, <br>after 23 hours as hungry and weary travellers, <br>the priest there queried us how we were? <br>“We won’t try again even if you assured a crore”, <br>we yelled and fell to the ground.<br>The priest sprayed spring water on our faces<br>and said aloud to console us: <br>“The four famous Saivite Saints<br>dared not climb up this Vellingiri.<br>But you have succeeded! ” <br>   47</div><div style="margin:10px 0">I’m sure! The Lord has guarded us against hunger<br>and brought us back home safe; <br>of course with bulging legs and broken joints.<br>O you boys! You might have overtaken us<br>and completed the trip in 5.5 hours.<br>It may be your sixth or sixtieth trip.<br>But God’s favour is ‘No’ to you as most of you<br>drowned in liquor and flew over the hills.  55<br>  ----------</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Rajendran+Muthiah">Rajendran Muthiah</a><div class=q>
