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.

Black and Gold

Along the wrinkles of books forgotten
Yellowing pages, dusty and old
Flowing words; a river of black and gold
Beginnings and endings untold
Tracing the outline of every little bend
Warm ink painted on pages cold
Slip into stories from times new and old
Of the brave, beautiful and bold

Flying far, unto the imaginations end
To familiar worlds so unknown 
Valleys of flowers and castles of stone
Glow with all the beauty adorn
The place where truth and lies blend
Lies the little story of our own
Imperceptible ties of love that shine
Colours of good times bygone
