Poem in Response

Having read “Superstition Mountain“, written by the talented and lovely Arizonian poetess, Michele Lee – wherein she draws spiritual nourishment, perspective and resolve in visiting majestic mountains near Phoenix – I was inspired to write this poem…

At golden hour
Above the sands
Old spirits join in song

From mountain tops
Upon the wind
As one, with you – stand strong
