Mountain View
Sweet fragrance of
cedar and pine
In the mountain you
will find
Crows and eagles who
dare to fly
Wayward into the
blue sky
The wind whispers
around each bend
Whether you incline
or steadily descend
Places never seen by
any man
or crossed over its
wide river span
High up green
carpeted meadows
grow
Only sheep or
mountain climber can
go
Valleys with foilage
so dense and thick
Traversing around
can be mighty slick
Rock formations
millions of years
old
Snow caps never melt
because of cold
Rivers that meander
and bend
Falls dropping over
cliffs face end.
Lakes come in
various shades of
blue
the ice fields have
that coloring too
Towering cliffs
that reach for the
sky
Thin air as you
climb up high.
