Transcendence

The distant mountain is ablaze
Sun    rain    clouds blend majesty

From my perch on the lookout hill
All land between is ocean

Clouds    like white waves    obscure the Earth
I bathe in that transcendence

Hey Mr. Daver! This seemed like a good title from which to try to explain Beneath God's Mt. Well, have you ever read any Z. Sitchin? It is mostly based on his studies, and the studies of the God's/2012 from the perspective of all major religions of today and yesterday coming to the same conclusions...how this universe and all universes/planets/beings are watching us and waiting to see what happens/what the colective consciousness of here will end up as...if we are capable od succeeding...

Nice use of imagery in this short format. The creative spacing adds visual interest and gives the reader a bit of a pause. Interesting reflection. Karen
