Mountain
Between the darkness in the day
And the daylight streaming through night's shadow
Stands a testament to time's glorious representative
Of the firmament's warehouse of millennia
Once, a bump upon the ocean's floor
Then time, and Earth Changes
Thrusts it into the daylight
Where it devours the human eye, with kisses
And life-giving waters melting from its shoulders
It sways, to the music of nature
Like a majestic conductor of symphonic balance
Do you think that waiting within its DNA
Is painted, the entire history of the world?
The Cosmos? Oh sweet master of Intelligent Design
If I make the climb, and greet you at the pinnacle
Will you be my salvation? My Church inside?
My Great Divide?
"YES!
Forever,
And a day!"...

To reach the pinnacle of the mountain top

Hi Tony, brilliant piece of art. Mountains are one of God's great creations, a religious symbol. When you are on top of the mountain, you are closer to God!!
I've always been in love with the mountains. I was born in a very mountainous province in the Philippines. There, I found serenity #
" Memories made in the mountains stay in our hearts together "
Sorry, I've missed so many nice things lately!!
Hugs and cheers
Leah

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,
.
High upon the mountain top
It's pinnacle awaits
The history of humanity
Is within it's secret gates
.
He that rises to it's peak
And learns it's inner way
Will find the fabled Shangra La
Where God comforts them each day
.
Peace, Love and Rockets,
Larry xxx
