RED MOUNTAIN
It’s light and rainy
And the warm buds have turned
The mountain into roses.
All around the scent is
Deep and fragrant
As only grass and rain can be.
I feel alive and grateful
As I remove my jacket and
Breathe it all in.
From valley to mountain
The magnificent event
Takes place…
Sun shines through the rain
And colors arc
Across the sky.
No time to take a picture
Just drink it in
And sigh.
