Elevations

  
     I lift up my eyes to the mountains
        seeking inspiration

     Lift your eyes up higher, my son
        to the Creator of mountains, the Holy One

your words are inspirational and uplifting....your poem reminds me of why I lived near the Franklin Mountains for so long.....saw them every morning as I drove to work....the perspective stayed without throughout my teaching day
