The Mountains

The silhouettes of the mountains reveal a face Enveloping the irises with a mystifying gaze Far into the depths—lost faces are revealed The spirit of the empty and lost—reveled And as the darkness burns throughout the night One is left with a sense of reverence for the forms One is left with a tempest—elevating the soul

Love this one, Laura! Fun and interesting how you captured something that many cannot see, without your power of words and imagination! I have a question though, it's been always plaguing me, what are those animals on that picture? Maybe kangaroos, teeny dogs, or oh, I'm stumped! Best wishes! Mikki

Wow. I take a break to hike a few days and such powerful words get posted in my absence. "And as the darkness burns throughout the night / One is left with a sense of reverence for the forms" - you must have been very near where I was in the wilderness. Exceptional! -- Chuck
