Long ago, formed by His hand
Courageous and bold
Like the oak and the elm
Whispering truths
Silencing every doubt
They call to the spirit
With tenderness, inspiring
A fire that brings passion
Alive, wild and warm,
Soothing the spirit and
Coloring the will in brilliant hues
Of God breathed guidance
Old as time, they seem so wise
Haggard and worn, their charm
Is the laughing dreams
That fall like a summer rain
Lifting hearts and stirring souls
To listen to the sighs
The vibrant lights and highs
Of peaks climbing toward the
Clouds in heaven, rising
Like emerald rumors, inviting
The promise of wonders
Discovered on these hills
Where laughing pines unwind
To the melody of wrens
Soothing away all fear
Their ridges walk paths, completed
By rocky trails, routes
Toward the places where
Cool, clear water baths
The smooth stones in liquid
Love that comes from above
Comforting the spirit
With peace that can’t be created
By anything else – nothing
Can imagine the kind beauty
Brought alive in the heart
Of the Blue Ridge Mountains
This place is like a fountain of grace
Pouring hope out across the mind
Leaving faith to abide inside
And assuring hearts that love is alive!
