Mountains
I searched among the clear blue waters
and golden rays of sun
not knowing what I was looking for
was among the mountainous clay
the strength the outer layer held
speckled by layers of torrent weather
washed and beaten to create such majesty
breathtakingly beautiful
the sun caresses its soft lips
upon the tiny imperfections
not knowing below the surface
lies something oh so precious
the softer, sweeter edges
run through my fingers
to be cherished and loved
it is amongst the mountains I found
where my heart belongs
the silent, hidden secrets
meant to be revealed and loved
my journey among these mountains
forever my life’s content
