mountains rock


The mountains stand tall
Our earth's towering bastion
Impregnable might
An invincible stronghold
Pinnacle of creation.

    Such power and beauty displayed in this tanka, Yas..one morning I rode my bicycle thru Death Valley , CA...I remember feeling this powerful moment as the mountains shook hands with the rising sun...oh, I felt so insignificant yet so loved by my Creator at the same time...invincible stronghold is a great way to describe that!!! Pausing to appreciate this view....here's to another wonderful day!
