The Hope, Climbing To Ascend

The Hope, Climbing To Ascend

born of earthen soil, clay models of infinite degrees and sky hopes
snowy mountain ledge, peak ringed by white stormy clouds, icy silent breath

Beautiful, very...the imagery is divine; white stormy clouds, now there's something you don't see every day... I hear miracles are meant to come riding on the clouds. Surely, this is the winner. L x
