Highest Form of Love
A spiritual poem of nature and finding self
In the name of mountains,
I hike and seek you —
above.
Heeding my prayers
between towering terrains;
she descends.
Robed in water,
she is rocks
crashed into pebbles.
Weary of life
hope eludes
like rising fog.
Touching the sand,
I waver in faith
on land.
High in the mountains,
I fight the demons
for the godly me.
