Faint Yarchagunbus of Dolpa and Your and My Mentality

by Shiva Devkota

Whilst
the Warmth streaks of light are
bouncing over the pasty snow clad terrain,

and thawing the cover
somewhere, yarchagunbus start budding
after slaking new hopes.
*
Extensive alpine meadows are just preparing to mushroom
Dolpali yarchagunbus in the arrival of the season
but this has stimulated homes, brains and wallets,
Deshu / Lagar / Satu / meals and noodles are getting packed;
thinking
balmy hopes for those approaching chilly torrential days.
Thousands of steps of villagers of below snowline and those
who can see snow at the horizon ,
are at the brink of
welcoming by those monetizing hospitable meadows.
* *
Prolonged and incessant caravans are whistling and scaling
Sheer cliffs seeming nothing
and faraway at home toddlers accompanying dotage and disabled folks
kept waiting their return.
Cattle are driven towards jungle
and at home freed cocks are under the threat of jackals and cats
left at home while leaving hurriedly
in rummage around for Dolpali yarchagunbu.
* * *
Some schools and homes are abandoned and emptied
and the blackboard kept waiting
for the straight, round, curved and slanted lines of white chalks
and homes remains thrived for the shouting of spouses
and clamour of kids even for span of a moment.
* * * *
Chimal, Bhojpatra, Lagma and pines are at tranquil,
when the alpines meadows are flocked by the blue, white and yellow tarpaulins emitting fumes
enjoying bonfires and clamours at night.
Clumsy cliffs are faded by bush-fire,
and plastic covered fresh and green meadows are fostering several scented flowers
in the wilderness of alpine.

Suddenly I shouted-
OH !
These alpines meadows are relentlessly enduring all those-
Footsteps, necessities, and those Dolpali yarchagunbus and whole impatience.
* * * * *
At the span of time
The Dolpali Yarchagumbus are wandering for new running,
an apt and proper for increasing the shared-responsibility to manage whole
biota of alpine-land
So can the flowers of wilderness remain blossomed, trees keep on puff-out
Bluesheeps kept grazing and musk dancing
And meadows turn into the playground for hide and seek of the alpine grass and
Dolpali yarchagunbu,
So can Manmaya fetch green currencies
and
Sonam should not lost the dazzling eyes,
the unmatchable natural wealth can go long for indefinite
and Doplan
identity remain untreated.
