Skiddaw, a Cumbrian Fell

Highborn, regal Skiddaw Such grace in one so high, A countenance of majesty, A fortress to my eye. Looking down on all around you Immense in all your might, From your foot, we lift our eyes To wonder at the sight. Rising like a titan From the verdant valley floor, In splendid isolation Heavenwards, you soar. A transfixing, noble aspect Such wonder you exude, High and mighty Skiddaw, A king, in solitude.
