Elysian mountain top chalet
majestic granite’s snow ballet

the wintry flower petals play
escape the clouds and sail away

The silent dance before the ground
a chorus floating without sound

in tranquil whispered light unbound
Cathedral cliffs and meadows found

Soft linen stillness paints the floor
a shiny dome at rapture’s door

the waterfall a midnight score
sequoia’s cling to new décor

Extol-- El Capitan’s plateau
where gallant glaciers guard below

a midnight walk, our hearts bestow
Yosemite--- in winter snow

thank you for igniting my memory

Very pretty poem; I'm loathe to give the a*s-kissing yadda yadda but this has been honed greatly and the natural imagery is enhanced by solid structure/form in iambic tetrameter and couplets. Like very much in form and content both, sister
