Mt. Sopris

Mt. Sopris Blessing

Sun’s early rise warms the new face,

Forever greeted by stillness – no morning wind,

Almighty God, has authority to rescind.

Majestic twined peaks of Elk rise on high,

Lively, young clouds to the west – linger close by…

Shepherds of life, they provide for what’s best,

Our Lord wielding a wet paintbrush, splashes with scarlet

and fire.

The prairie flowers – now VERY alive,

Rejoice together – quite higher.

Life marches skyward for those who’ve wept,

Blessed by friends and family and alpine meadows

windswept.
