Glacier National Park

Shafts of silver, light an untainted world
Glowing mist surround surreal silhouettes
Palpable reflections on water turquoise
Of mighty mountains and glacial ice.

Earth adorn in shades of evergreen
A gown embroidered with alpine trees
Frills and folds capture colors changing
Every little hue of a crimson painting.

Laughing waters bright and crystalline
Dance by meadows of purple and yellow
As they thaw and merge into lakes placid
Shimmering and sparkling, bright and vivid.

Benevolent wind imbued with tranquility
A deep sense of calm left in its wake
Gentle melodies drift through the skies
Of wayward creatures abound in this paradise.
