Premium Member The Slopes of Kilimanjaro
From the lofty snowcapped peaks of Kilimanjaro The morning mist envelopes its verdant foothills in a tight embrace, No need to hurry, this is not a race, Beads of sunlight dancing across the glistening dew. As the plains of Amboseli reveal their golden hue, There's movement spied where none existed moments prior, A herd of Zebra lounging in their elegant attire, The lush...

Skiing steep sloped slaloms one snowy week, Knowing my courses from every stark peak. In whiteouts of bitter blizzards bleak Which lacked hazards to frighten me to freak. Nothing was too risky to stop my streak, Getting ski heroes poled into a creek....

The Rising Hills, the Slopes To Quench My Thirst
THE RISING HILLS, THE SLOPES, TO QUENCH MY THIRST. In the last century, the hopes were little, Grasses they collected, yellow bananas, they peeled, To move up the slopes, preparation was fore filled, Oh the grower of banana trees, To reach the top - in his absence, one had to hustle. Gone are the days when the hill was like a...

On the Slopes of the Lush Hill
On the slopes of the lush hill the drowsy magnolias seep the warm drops of the dew; they don't expect any rain for another distant season... where no hungry lizards creep! Many of us seek places of harmony, longing for notes that tantalize emotions, feeling the caresses of the capricious wind dispersing the petals of the dogwood trees... while being captured by the idyllic images we'll...

The six steep slopes they gave me.. yes, all were mine. I can give them to you.. if you wish them. Though they tend to be., unkind. Don't wait for them to love, or understand, or forgive.. It's not their way. They serve only to light a path, show you the way. Discover who you are, yes, and where you come from. It's what you...

Peeks, Slopes and Portholes
Red throne, ambitious and they shout more fire! So I had to ignite my spirit even though At times I'm cold, and life be like an ocean, Trapped in the center no shore's "So how can you be sure; if ye don't know thee self"..? But now I understand, reality quiet- simple and clear: Crystals... Beams of lights, more light...

Peeks and Slopes
The girl who loved two things, Yeah I know her! Anyway back to life! Joys and struggles and times change, The arm that goes round and all around: earth round! The locksmiths keep designing keys to open locks, Legends of possibilities and my golden boots, Life learned and I play those black and white keys: Honoring Stevie Wonder for his wondrous...

Premium Member Snowy Slopes Come Alive
Snowy slopes come alive Snow capped mountain peaks it's eyes on sleepy town, as it slumbers in it's gown as daylight counts down. As light fills in, town comes to play shaking the ground, with tourist skis flocking the hills for trills be found. Fresh powdered snow glistens the snowy slopes abound, it's fir trees dancing to skiers going round and...
