No words to describe
no language to speak
when a splendour so awesome
derives me of speech

My eyes try absorbing
the grandeur below
as I sit on this hilltop
bewildered with awe

Unfolded beneath me
a landscape of dreams
creations of nature
too true to believe

My ears try absorbing
the silence of sounds
wind rustling palm leaves
waves in the seas

Waters so turquoise
all shades of blue
patches of corals
breathtaking lagoons

Ripples flow quietly
from oceans afar
peacefully reaching
soft sandy shores

Ending of waters
beginning of land
white powdery sand grains
hugging the bay

Nurturing palm trees
all shades of green
leaves gently swaying
playing wind's games

Protected by limestone
rocks tower behind
remnants of past times
solidly proud

Untouched by mere humans
their powers too strong
retain their claimed spaces
here they belong

Climbing each other
to reach final heights
where blankets of green
reach up to the skies

Supporting the cloud deck
and heavens above
endless layers
of blue turning white

Sun rays illuminate
textures and shapes
all elements blending
in the warmest embrace

Sloping down smoothly
past rocks, plants and trees
to return to the warm sands
then swallowed by seas

Boats bobbing gently
soundless from here
mere dots in this landscape
to see but not hear

Creations of mankind
how fragile and small
wings spread by an eagle
just covered them all

Creations of nature
untouchably strong
endless survivors
when we'll be long gone

So tiny I feel now
so mortal and small
yet greater than ever
being part of this all

Speechless with awe
grateful, inspired
elated, bewildered
words don't suffice

To describe what surrounds me
emotions inside
a world on display here
earth, water, skies

And high on this hilltop,
speechless
sit I
