social distancing
take care not to get too close
might find we need us
why do we make it so hard?
always wanting something more

ancient stone pillars
“how impressive!” people say
snow covers rubble

inspired by this classic haiku:
“An ancient road,” they say
How charming
Though beneath this snow.

A few years ago, I climbed Mt. Torreys with my brother who has climbed many of Colorado’s 14ers. (Photo found at all trails)
inhale mountain air
top-of-world experience
scale barren summit
bird’s eye view of blue vista
worth gulping lungs, aching legs
