Best Ranges Poems
Delightful Mountain RangesLandscapes exposing nature’s grandeur
mountain ranges inspire great trip.
Cordilleras of welcoming marvels
propel refreshing ascent
amidst pure verdant sights.
Those delight me, the Earth’s firmament
while surveying the pine trees steadfastly queueing along hills
offering shade to blossoming lilies
with cabbage roses wondrously radiant…
oh, inviting faith-strengthening treks
driven by faithful stewardship...

The Aberdare Ranges KenyaDawn, when silence falters
And the trees of the range-
Are tucked in a bucket of fog
Marching dawn, whose beauty never alters,
I tuck myself in blankets like a log

The sun on my back makes me want to stay
Walking to the rock face broken on the gorge face
Two wallabies look...

Hill Rangestouched by firmament
hill ranges show God's grandeur
towering midst storm

Ranges of Scenarios

Ideals, Overthinking, Sanity, Insanity.
Energetic vibrations of six six-cylinders of emotions:
Fear, Sadness, Anger, Disgust, Surprise, Happiness.

We've all had both light and darkness inside of us.

HimalayasIt is too many Peaks towering high
Snow-capped giants scraping the sky

Those jagged peaks were so perilous
Glaciers groan and shift
Avalanches roar, and the danger is furious
It is too remote
Villages clinging to precipitous slopes
Narrow trails wind
?Few dare...
