An Epic Lies Buried,

An Epic Lies Buried

(Prof. R.P. Garg)

Deep deep in the inner most layer
Where the heart throbs
Of this silent brooding hill
The history of a billion years
You can see recorded.
All the blooming brilliance of flowers
The songs of birds, dances of leaves,
All the colours of butterflies,
And messages carried through winds
lie buried in its dark unseen rocks
Inscribed by the hands of time.
All the gales and tempests
Whirlpools and hurricanes on the sea
Are chronicled in its deep waters.
Here, for these ancient castle walls
Resound with the thunder of battles
Whispers of conspiracies, bloody acts of vengeance,
Tearful regrets, frenzies, sighs,
Invasions, deceits, quaking fears,
And all the events of a thousand years.
I can still see marked in the sky
All the flights of all the birds
Since life came to this earth.
Nothing is lost to oblivion
Nothing done becomes undone.
An epic lies buried 
Deep in every grave.
