Mountains
Made over millions of years, handcrafted by our gods
Out of pure earthly might, these giants take eternal watch
Under the weather they shadow the land, and breed life on their backs
Never to be broken down, sentinels of Earth’s landscape
Tall is this abstract concept, heavy in unimaginable mass
A rock stacked on top of another, will eventually become one, timeless
In beautiful light they transcend nature’s beauty, testament
Now towering celestial formations, they guide generations of cells, and
Symbolize all that man craves, a view that scratches the sky.
