Resilience Carved in Stone

What's to love about a mountain, you ask?

It's in the way it stands,

unwavering, ancient, a testament

to time itself.

It's in the way the dawn

kisses its peak,

bathing it in gold,

while shadows play along its vast expanse.

In its silent strength,

it whispers stories

of the ages,

of storms weathered and skies embraced.

Its slopes, a haven

for dreams and daring,

where eagles soar

and rivers begin their journey.

In its presence, we find

our own insignificance,

and yet, a connection

so profound it roots us to the earth.

To love a mountain

is to admire resilience,

to seek solace in its unchanging gaze,

finding peace in its immovable grace.

For in each ridge,

each crevice and peak,

lies a story of the earth,

an unspoken promise of endurance and time.
