The Mountain

The Mountain

 Iconic 
white peak floats
over the region from Seattle to
Tacoma. Seen easily on clear sunny
days, natures heavily glacially mantled
edifice inspires us to reach great heights, as
we stand in awe of this beautiful sleeping volcanic strato
giant that we have called Rainier, also known earlier as Tahoma.

Pandita Sietesantos July 10, 2015 at 10:44 AM This is utterly AMAZING! I enjoyed this magnificent as a mountain piece! Poetry very well done in beauty, shape, and imagery! Rate it a 7! Warmest regards. Pandita Edward Johannes July 10, 2015 at 11:10 AM Thanks, Pandita. Unfortunately, I cannot see the mountain currently from my house (about 50 miles away) as smoke from large forest fires in BC, Canada obscure it from my view.
