Villanelle to the Smoky Mountains cabin

The mountains crest in trees gold,

Haze and dew settle to night appease

As the sun rises to words untold.

 

It's as it's been since days of old;

Changing colors and changing leaves;

The mountains crest in trees gold.

 

I watch, let the day unfold

As spiders mingle in the eaves;

As the sun rises to words untold.

 

The cabin sits near a stream cold

Which rushes 'neath the sunrise breeze--

The mountains crest in trees gold.

 

Calling forth the flight of birds,

the march of ants, the drone of bees--

As the sun rises to words untold.

 

A glory fairest to behold,

None is greater than of these:

The mountains crest in trees gold

As the sun rises to words untold.
