Rocky Mountain High

There's nothing like the smell of fresh air So come join me on this expedition there High above the canyon ridges Of Colorado's mountain's and bridges Pikes Peak Cheyenne to name a few But let me tell you oh what the view For there are fresh water streams Cascading down the slopes of green Then there are countless winding and twisting roads Slowing down the engines cargo load Top of Cheyenne's peak You can almost hear God speak Voices in the wind Not to hear it would be such a sin And if your lucky enough even capture an eagle in flight Encirciling Pikes Peak now wouldn't that be a sight So for your next viva vacation Remember the mountains of Colorado who also holds great sensations

Selected again? Wow! This is nostalgic. I used to play waltz night at the Broadmoor Hotel and all the shows at the International Center. Taught violin at Colorado College and orchestra at Palmer High Schoo. Would love to reminisce with you. davidraustin@charter.net

Good use of rhyme to share this experience. Living in North Dakota, vacations in some of the mountain areas in the country have awed me which you captured in this poem. Good luck in the contest. Keep that pen flowing my friend. Thank you for your kind comment. Karen
