“If the mountain will not come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain”

Muhammad and the Mountain

The little boat that could
Up the river it would
Ride high over the mountain
To find the mythical fountain

“Clouds suit my mood just fine” Marie Lu, Champion

Three

Dark clouds low in the sky
Painted with the greyest of die
It is calm in the storm’s eye

Birds into their nests quickly fly
Nothing moves, not even a butterfly
Before the rain pours down from the sky

Scenic view included
The brochure exuded
In an area quite secluded

Selection undisputed
Coordinates in computed
Soon, nothing but solitude

“Clouds suit my mood just fine” Marie Lu, Champion

One

On the way to Peru
Or possibly Katmandu
Onto a side track we flew

Soon enough, in a locale new
With a cloudy blue hue
And a gorgeous mountain view

“March, when days are getting long,
Let thy growing hours be strong
To set right some wintry wrong.”
~Caroline May, 1887

Blue and White

Blue skies and snowy white waters
The sun burning ever more hotter
To bring the winter to its slaughter

Blue Shadows

The March sun high up in the sky
Painting tall shadows with a blue dye
Across the snowy bed letting them lie
