Below the peak, the heights,
in the shadow of the Mountain,
My refuge on one of the lesser peaks,
growing like stalagmites below
their ever-watchful parent.
I climb, I climb, with my daily provisions,
ancient path upward, upward,
so familiar to me...
I watch the sky, the transit of the sun,
the changing of the seasons
from my mountain home,
high up in the family,
the Mountain, the lesser peaks….

How poetic can you be? Take a few minutes
to write a short poem about what you see!
Have fun and be creative!

in the shadow of the Mountain,
My refuge on one of the lesser peaks,
growing like stalagmites below
their ever-watchful parent.
ancient path upward, upward,
so familiar to me...
the changing of the seasons
from my mountain home,
high up in the family,
the Mountain, the lesser peaks….
