A mountain stands where many trespassed for decades

The blue, magnificent—towering from the soft ground

above the canopy of trees

Where rocks and trees rise along side

Stable and secure

Reaching high to breathe the clouds reprieve

The fragrance of a fresh forest—heavy with dew, where the fog shivers

In the morning, as the sun rises ambitiously.

Black sand beaches surround the edges—seldom vacant

Rich and roaring in waterfalls hidden by vegetation.

Moses

retires to Mount Sinai where God reveals to him the Ten Commandments.

Muhammad

meditates in a mountain cave when he receives his first revelation.

Reaching the top, there will always be another mountain.
