I am awake  to life
opening my heart
loving fiercely

the morning is infused with possibilities,
before the humid heat of the South weighs
me down.

I long for the mountain streams of Appalachia,
and standing under a water fall on a hot day.

I live in the city, but I carry the mountains with me
in my heart.

The mountains are home of my heart, where I can always return to
over and over.

A home of my heart to welcome a new day,
time and time again.

I                                nights.
am                        cold   Snow
  born                  and         flakes
    In                 snow            fall
