Phyllis Babcock Poet Free verse

Peaks

Dark clouds encircled the majestic peaks
 Hovering, lingering, around the tips
 Hiding the summit above.
  Enshrouded in thick mist
  dark, like a mysterious enigma.
  Swirling and dancing to the winds refrain.
 Clearing for only a moment,you glimpse
  Casting your eyes on peaks
  that have stood centuries of time.

Keith Bickerstaffe July 3, 2012 at 9:15 AM Hidden, then visible, these monoliths are testament to the endurance of nature. We see them in all their glory when clouds and mists evaporate! Well done, Phyl!! Best wishes, Keith :) Phyllis Babcock July 3, 2012 at 2:46 PM just home from holidays and while riding thru the Rockies this picture played in my mind.
