In the coral sea,
For now I will climb,
The mountain that is near me."
Life goes on...
The mountain will be climbed. E-

I used to live near the Ozark mountains and when the leaves changed color it created a mountain rainbow. It was gorgeous. Your poem and picture took me back.
ReplyDeleteLovely poem!
ReplyDeleteLovely! Kind of looks like a coral sea above ground too. I'm looking forward to going for walks in the mountains back home but some mountains require another type of climbing don't they?
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed the poem and the beautiful photo!
