Morning mist drapes the ancient spires,
stone sentinels born of fire’s desires.
A young hiker stands where the ridges gleam,
map in hand, eyes lost in dream.
High on the tower, the timber hums,
as wind through the railing softly drums.
He faces the mountains, vast and far,
each peak a memory, each scar a star.
The paper flutters — a compass, a guide,
his heart beats steady with the morning tide.
Below, the forest breathes in green,
above, the sky burns bright and clean.
He folds his map, the silence calls,
the world below, the range enthralls.
The Glass House waits, both stern and kind,
a mountain path, a state of mind.

ReplyDeleteIt is nice to hike and walk through the salt bush
DeleteVery nice
ReplyDeleteI'd go to that lookout point. If there was an elevator, lol.
ReplyDeleteThat look out was pleasant when I was last there
DeleteThat is a wild looking landscape for a long hike. This walker is perhaps looking for adventure?
ReplyDeleteThe location suffered a terrible bushfire after my last visit.
DeleteThis reads like a whispered memory etched in mist. The imagery is so vivid, I can almost hear the timber hum and feel the map flutter in my hands. A quiet ode to solitude, nature, and the inner compass that guides us through both terrain and thought. Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteIt is the salt bush and wet moist smell
DeleteThat's a really cool photo :-D
ReplyDeleteI need to change the scenery for this blog here lol
DeleteTodos los elementos que compone la iagen están bien dispuestos.
ReplyDeleteMuy buena la incorporación de ese hombre que se dedica a mirar el móvil y no repara en el buen paisaje que tiene delante.
Un abrazo.
You are always so appreciative what I tried to do
DeleteDeu ser meravellós veure aquest paisatge des d'on el contempla ell.
ReplyDeleteSalutacions, James.
I will post the image on the other blog later
DeleteToday's character has left the urbanites in the city and is planning a nature excursion. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteI don't want to limit street photography to just streets
DeleteEstupendo blanco y negro de un lugar que llama la atención por lo poco habitual en tu blog. Magnífico cambio
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo
Freedom.
ReplyDeleteNot being limited is a good thing. You can define your own street photography! I like this one.
ReplyDeleteThe view must be amazing!
ReplyDeletePaisaje y emoción se funden. Bonita conbinación.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo!
