Between Mountains

Neville

Between Mountains

 

What a ride that was

Never now to be forgot

Those awesome mountain

Passes beaten

 

Pale wood smoke rising

Hidden mountain croft

Where we might once have

Laid there naked

 

The forest now though

Stripped by hungry winter mouths

Makes way for bud and green

No remnant of a season past and still tho

 

As high we climb

Below obscured by rainbowed clouds

Yet still I remembered that would be

The perfect place to say goodbye

                  Wonderful write Neville those places that we see in our lives are so meaningful and some are never forgotten.

                  • Neville

                    I guess that's why so many of us try to capture them by whatever means we feel most comfortable.. thank you my friend for your positively encouraging visit..... Neville
