Where the heaven and earth meet



Beyond the horizon,
Someplace far away,
Someplace unknown,
Concealed in the unfathomable magic..
The land meets the sky.
Sharing tales of longing, mystery and more..
Of how the people below are awed by the glimmering lights above..
Of how the moon in its solitude finds company in the gazes of folk unknown..
Of how humans yearn to reach the clouds,
Yet fear lightnings and thunder,
However rejoicing the bliss of rain and dew.
Of how the sun illuminates the revolving planets with vows of hope..
As it's rays herald a new day to cope.
Of how the sapiens try unraveling the mystery of the vast space above,
Only to realise that it's borders are infinite like that of love.
The  abode of the Gods merges with the earthlings' dwelling
Heaven and human haven collide..
Life and death intertwine fearlessly as..
Mortals and immortals dance to rhythms divine.
The celestial and earthly world rendezvous.
That place is not far,
Not outside our reach..
It's within you and me..
Inexplicable to souls who don't believe in the beyond..
I dream to traverse there one day..
Banish the fragile border between the finite and infinite..
Where heaven meets the earth,
And our differences are buried with mirth.
