In the Mountains

In the mountains
Lungs inspire mo' better air
Toes weave with foldover grasses
Eyes drink morning light
Light changes

In the mountains
Light changes throughout the seasons
Throughout the day if allowed
Daytime sounds arrive from town
on the backs of ridges then recede
Night changes everything

In the mountains
Night changes everything
beckoning spirits of all ages.
Light fires with
modern day torches.
Watch sparks fly returning
mingling with the stars of always.
Urging remembrance
letting time fall away. Sit still.

In the mountains
