a glorious mountain

The Glorious Mountain The mountain on the other side of the bay was born before colors were invented and introduced to make the world jollier  a place for humanity to relax and love This mountain, however, has three basic colors, black, gray, and snow white if these shades had not been there the hill would have been unseen a shimmer of morning light to avoid accident, it would have had to be painted every four years or when the town had money not earmarked for child care The mountain is no place for a Sunday stroll thousands of seabirds have made it slippery the grass has gone, over-fertilized that tells us, that health has its limitation Where the mountain meets the ocean crustaceans are the size of drop-dead dolphins one lobster can feed a family of five The mountain's bleak exterior has a hidden    beauty and looks glorious at sunset
