Majesty

Noble beauty the landscape embraces
Dignifying these mountain faces
Trembling water begins to ripple
Through this divinely painted oasis

Off in the distance an eagle takes flight
Circling left then gliding right
Dipping down to catch and feed
Soaring into the broad daylight

Nature's majesty here is so rare
Bejeweled shards of crisp,clean air
Breathe in deeply and heal your soul
In this magnificence lose all care
