Flashback

Somewhere in the mountains

In the hills of Himachal, Kasol's embrace,

Three siblings journeyed, a serene trace.

A 7-day journey, it was 24th December 2021,

In the lap of mountains, a time to remember.

Kheerganga's trails, winding and steep,

Through lush green whispers, secrets they keep.

Laughter and struggles, hand in hand,

A trek through time, in a mystical land.

The beauty of Kasol, in memories reside,

Where nature's heart opens wide.

But with each fond flashback, a poignant shade,

For a sister's laughter that never will fade.

14th February 2023, a day of despair,

She left for the stars, leaving hearts bare.

In the silence of loss, her absence so loud,

A void in the hearts of the family crowd.

As friends tread paths where once they roamed,

Memories in echoes, tenderly combed.

In each step, a story, in each glance, a tear,

For a sister, a friend, forever dear.

Yet in these hills, her spirit sings,

In rustling leaves, and mountain springs.

A journey of love, of laughter, and pain,

In the heart of the hills, her memory remains.

So walk on, dear brother, with your memories dear,

Through valleys of sorrow, overcoming your fear.

For in every journey, her spirit's embrace,

In the tranquil beauty of nature's grace.
