The Pinnacle Pines

Bold escarpments scrape the clear sky,
rake and hoe the clouds day bright,
plant your pointed pinnacle high, 
show man the way into the Light.
Reflect upon the fractured form 
for all that is human is reborn.

Debbie, don't like the word escarpment..used in poem...takes away from your poem's beauty...Smile...please find another word...rake and hoe...seems too brash in a discription of nature beauty. However, jolly good show...one's pointed pinnacle high...doesn't lie...shows the way into the light...and a fractured human form...allows the the soul to be reborn. Great summation in last four lines. Congratulations on a top three. Agape, Moses

ahhh we all have our own ways of thinking of things..I did think perhaps escarpment would be too much, but then again it's always nice to become MORE comfortable with complex words ;)
