Taking the road to Lhasa is no joke and this you have beautifully depicted in this poem though the eyes of a woman who shares her laughter after a day's hard work.10/10
This poem contradicts and celebrates women empowerment.....she is travelling alone yet the unfriendly landscape is burden turning everything into a mask.....Thanks.
Very nice poem, especially the last few lines, Hard it is for a woman, far from home. And endless the road to Lhasa beneath a mask. Thanks for sharing.
I have read a fantastic poem - a rarity these days. Kudos!
The ordeals of high altitude faced while travelling on road to Lhasa in the Himalayas have been amazingly narrated by the poetess in this wonderfully penned poem along with the respite the night provides to them at places of camping.Thanks for sharing.10+ points.
Taking the road to Lhasa is i feel a metaphor only - the poet beautifully describes how life is tough for a woman, she has to mask herself and get through the day's challenges & yet she goes to be with laughter perhaps strengthening herself to go through the next days challenges
