Security

The mountain rises high Distinct in the slate colored sky Strength in stillness is seen Escape to nature is serene Safety in the hills, things can’t touch Watching raindrops, cleanse so much The mountain brings security to feel Amidst the chaos that becomes real Sitting there, each day to see A gift from creation to center me Heidi Sands 7/29/21

These two lines would have been enough to make a great poem "The mountain brings security to feel Amidst the chaos that becomes real" The rest was sprinkles with a cherry on top.

Heidi, 'Safety in the hills, things can’t touch' A little jealous of your escape wrought from creation. So much covered in man-made cheap copies in a nation. -Richard

It feels like this at my home in the hills Richard. It seems when I am at other places or venture on the internet, it isn't the same. I will send some peace to you. Thank you for your comment on this. I hope you have a nice day :)

Never thought of mountains as blessed with a 'centering' feature before. Intriguing idea, Heidi. Thanks! ~ gw
