Mountains Speak
I peer at mountains and they speak to me.
They claim dominion over all that they see.
They serve as foundation and nectar for trees
That in turn are havens for birds and bees.
Then nourishing fauna and gorgeous flowers
Can offer a creation with limitless powers.
On their walls forests of foliage are amassed
Giving precious oxygen consumed just as fast.
More than ever mountains have something to say,
I hear them screaming,
"Treat us better or dearly pay."
