Miss Allegheny Mountain

Miss Allegheny Mountain

On her stone back the sleeping lady lies,
while on upward ride to the Western skies,
in blue lavender treeline's veiled disguise,
Miss Allegheny Mountain grows in size.

Azure cheeks are kissed by the dawn's sunrise.
Toward morning stars point her tree lined thighs.
Appearing on horizons in surprise,
Miss Allegheny Mountain fills our eyes.

On hilltops tall the mighty hawk abides,
cross valleys green where daytime swiftly flies.
In golden dress she bids the day that dies.
Miss Allegheny Mountain gently sighs.

Friends and love ones say hellos and goodbyes,
Miss Allegheny twists in lows and highs,
with sights so lovely one would truly prize,
a pleasure journey of her mountainsides.
