The mountains were tall with their giant green trees.
The sky looking as if it is sitting on top of them.
The clouds in the sky with touches of soft gentle
white, pretty birds soaring high above.
The cool weather setting down.
A river running down between two
awesome mountains.
With its slow flowing fresh water.
Rocks popping out to show life.
Bright green leaves blowing with the
touch of a light breeze.
A mirage before the eyes coming to
life with realness.
The cries of live creatures about,
making known their existance.
A deer drinking from the river with gentleness.
Scared off by the howling of a coyote.
They all live together in this vast land.
Making as one the wilderness song.
'To the loss of the wild, its beauty forever gone'
People think that progress means the more
the better, but what about what is forgotten
and destroyed for it? Once it's gone, it's gone.
