The mountain is more than a scene on the horizon <br />The mountain, <br />Is more than something for man to conquer? <br />It does more than fill up space, <br />It’s not just a barrier, <br />A stone wall or an obstacle, <br />To another place, <br />It’s not meant to be a mine of wealth, <br />Or a wall for some dam, <br />To harness power, <br />It has natural power, <br />It has natural wealth, <br />In it’s beauty, <br />In its spiritualism, <br />It has watched over time, <br />It has seen change, <br />Since the beginning of creation, <br />The mountain has always known gods presence, <br />Has felt the breath of the master himself, <br />Felt the foot steps of the Great Spirit upon, <br />The soft snow, <br />The carpet ignites in a soft glow, <br />Orange, red blended, <br />Yellow gold suspended, <br />Fills in the open space, <br />Between the mountain, <br />And a sparkling sky, <br />Crystals shimmer, <br />And pulsate, <br />In a velvet black sky, <br />Clear running water, <br />Trickles and builds, <br />Transforming into streams, <br />Then becoming rivers, <br />Torrential flow, <br />Thundering down out of the mountain, <br />Spectacular water falls, <br />Roar and cascade to the bottom of sheer cliffs, <br />Water foaming and turbulating, <br />Sending mist up into the atmosphere, <br />In a rain bow show, <br />The mountain is the mother, <br />The creator of rivers, <br />Life giver to all the land below, <br />The creator and the mountain, <br />Work together as one, <br />Harmonized, <br />In tune with our mother, <br />The earth, <br />The mountain is the creators alter, <br />That is where he prays, <br />The vision of the mountain. <br />Osceola Birdman Waters. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />,<br /><br />Osceola Waters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mountains-are-much-more-than-they-seem/
