Today as I sit I feel
as tall as a tree reaching my nose
to the sky seeing the glistening
outlines feeling the shaded sun ease
into my squinting eyes the softer light
warming my face hearing the trees holding space
now closing my eyes
instinctively this view expands into my dreams
my wide arms feeling
so much to hold or is this view beautifully
holding me

This view certainly holds me! Beautiful words and what a beautiful and very dramatic image!
Thank you so much, Susan. I really appreciate hearing that you had a similar feeling to me when seeing this image. I am looking forward to going back and enjoying this view in about a week. Mountain skies are always so inspiring!

I can’t believe it but I get to go back here tomorrow for 4 days! I am counting the hours to soak in this view again and again. Such a special place.
Oh you lucky girl you. Enjoy!!
