The Moon and the Mountain

The full moon sits atop of our mountain

Adding a luster to her snow

Bearing witness to this majesty

Each spectacular in her own right

In tandem caresses your eyes

No matter how often repeated

Each new occasion is a pleasant surprise

 

You may not believe in religion

Or pray to any God up above

But when looking upon this spectacle

You know our world was created with love

 

The full moon sits atop of our mountain

Adding a luster to her snow

Mesmerized by the sight from Gig Harbor

There is no place else that I wish to go


(NOTE:  I do not have the rights to post any of some of the amazing photos of the full moon rising above Mt. Rainier.  If the editors wish to place this poem with one of your pictures, that would be fine with me.)
