gods’ hand
with rock knuckles
spilled sage sleeves
above a mountain side wrist

does his finger point
ten commandments down
to the stream beside
some still water psalm

bristle cone pine
sentry with tired eyes
and no army feet to fear
only the winter when she comes

and tells stories to stones
with wind pictures
and moss ink crayons
vibrant to emerald as crimson

and the stanislaus santa clause smiles

Just think...

none of that truly exists
in Stanislaus County, proper...
at least not in the area
I tramped around...

but in the mountains...
oh, the Mountains...

This speaks to the gypsy in me - the woman that loves to wander the mountains and hillsides - beautiful -

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

A unique render.
Deeply spiritual words.

Extremely enjoyable images.
