: The Mountain is She by Lea Tonin1
No Rules Poetry Contest contest entry

the reservoir of crispy cold wind flutters

like dandelion seed flitting through the air

a musical breeze begins to roar

spreading white sheets across her rocky skirts

 

she lifts her hem expecting a manicure 

to tend her granite toes

blustery snapping air

moves her avalanche of rushing pale freeze

 

she reveals the depth of her white demise

flashes to horror and imminent stop

no sycamore water lily or animal

vanished with the valley 

 

the mountain shrugs

settles her skirts once again

sits upon her quartz throne

for another day of wind
