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.
