As I get ready to travel to my beloved Smokies for the Thanksgiving holiday with my family and dear friends-- I'm compelled to post a prose I wrote a while back-- I've always felt a connection to those hills that is quite 'surreal' to a large degree--
"Answering Within"
The frozen night falls between
tree and mountain and I listen
For the silent blue stillness stirs me
Leaving untouched hands of ages past
Filling in the traces I left in a long ago dream.
Was I here before? Or does the familiar ridge sing
to me from this side only.... The dark road of night
is traveled in all hours and to me wears the
reflection of darken silk.. oh yes, I've seen this place before
