Enchanted Rock

I went hiking to this place called Enchanted Rock, and was able to see the morning sunrise. It was stunning and beautiful. I simply had to write about it. :)

Enchanted Rock

 

There…

upon the western sky did I gaze

with the wind in my hair,

enchantment beneath my seat,

and Heaven caressing the essence of the day

 

The sound of silence slowly blew through my mind

when Aurora’s breathe caught suddenly in my throat,

my heart…

sighing in peaceful understanding

as the solar ascension adorned the sky before me

 

Delightful shades of autumn painted the forest below

a brisk zephyr of time twirled through me

the whispered voice of paradise

swaying on the trail of a cascading gust

and I…

surrendered my heart to the morning breeze

wafting autumn’s scent through the gallery of my mind

 

The waves of life crested on the horizon

a gleaming chandelier completing the alluring skyline

resonating life through all that could be seen,

echoing its breath with a gentle touch

and daybreak’s warming gleam

 

Fluttering promises sailed the skyward seas

lulling my spirit to tranquil peace

and I….

in silent morning reverie

wept at the glorious vision before me

as I looked upon serenity’s sunrise

while sitting atop the summit of sturdy Enchanted Rock

If you've seen in my photos, I'm a wilderness camping fool. God's greatness is never more passionate than alone in the wilderness watching the scenes played out before you in slow motion. No great monolith or edifice of man can even walk the same ground with His beauty, free to us all. I'm glad you get to see what is beauty to me, that your eyes are opened. Enjoy.

So very beautiful, lifting my tired soul to a place of perfect peace... Thank you for taking us to the enchanted rock on the wind of your words... Perfect... :)

A panoramic view of the stately beauty seen from high up...on a mountaintop. If life could emulate such visions, day in and day out...how happy we would be.

Your poem is a grand tribute to such natural wonder...

Excellent...
