Mt Fuji Mountain Bride
You Exude Reverence and Silence
In your wedding gown you adorn the sky
Crisp and white, lacy along your edges,
Wowing the masses year after year,
As you wait for your groom.
Something borrowed, something blue, something old,
Blue snow, borrowing your page from your own book.
As you are unique, and people never tire of your freshness.
Old wise ones point you out, marveling at your patience
You exude reverence and silence, adorning the landscape,
Your bridal gown perpetually fresh and clean, virginal.
Cherry Blossom trees, although beautiful,
Dare not whisper of your magnificent loveliness.
Ancient spirits have placed you here to wow
Generations upon generations of appreciative souls.
Needing no flowers or veil, you dwarf them with your
mystical, magical magnificent presence.
Faeries and angels knew what they were about
When they placed you here, bridging the gap between
earth and sky, spreading awe and faith into the valley
of people who revere and adore you. Mt. Fuji, home.
