The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Spirit Mountain

Serene Mountain’s so inviting
With clad stone cold faces peeking
Blue mirror pools so exciting 
Quivering patches touch my skin 
Leaning against a moaning wind 
Rapped in a rapture of heavens grin 

Inspired by John freeman’s “A Nature Verse contest”

Very nice depiction of a serene place. "leaning against a moaning wind"....a line that gives the poem expressive character. :)

A lovely verse that has a native Indian feel to it. I could imagine them in this environment and love the images you paint with words.
