On The Mountain    

This craggy faced mountain
propelled up from the millennia,
striped with dark layers, bold cliffs
obscured history, locked in place.

Impregnated with fossils,
remnants of lost life
yielding up ancient thoughts,
still… so  dormant it stands.

Paleo clues, hidden  bone fragments
a few small creatures, inhabit now
clouds almost touching my fingertips
misting ever so lightly.

Climbed this peak exploring,
hoping, curious :

Holding…
an empty hourglass,
looking  for the sand of time.

Hey Larry~ wave.gif

How are you doing? This is such a reflective piece with alliteration as outstanding as mountains and lifetimes!

Paleo clues, hidden  bone fragments
a few small creatures, inhabit now
clouds almost touching my fingertips
misting ever so lightly


Such a poignant and strong poem! sun.gif  sun.gif

Take care~
