~ View from the Top ~
A heavy haze is rolling in
settling over the mountains
draping them in a cloak of gray
hiding the sun
that earlier warmed
the rolling green hills
This is a place where nature plays
a perfect spot to stop and rest
as beauty around you spills
Peace and tranquility
surround you as you pause
among the hills
Serenity seems to seep from nature
like a warm cape
that caresses your soul
Your peaceful interlude is interrupted
the storm is moving toward you
as dark rain filled clouds
billow and roll closer
swallowing up the landscape
