Hiking up the Rocky mountains in Alberta

May 12, 2003

When I think of mountains,

I think of snow.

When I think of snow,

I think about birds migrating high and low.

When I smell the essence of our mountains,

I think of the sweet fragrance of grass,

and the fresh scent of our ponds filled with water,

reflecting the trees, like glass.

When I finally gazed at the breath-taking sight,

I saw bright, heavenly light,

shining upon our majestic mountains.
