In the Rockies

Crisp mountain air whistles softly, as shadows play on the snow

Breathe the vista
Feel the lightness

See
Fragile bushes holding a purple flare
White-topped peaks
Enduring evergreens standing by

Grasses sway
Alone or in clusters

Their shadows play along

Organic lines flutter
Pooled drips merge
Translucent silk rustles

Holding onto timeless qualities

Purple for loyalty and dignity
White for purity
Green for hope

Celebrate yesterday and today
Imagine tomorrow

Equally strong.
