the backlit hills revealed
a woman lying on her side
where gentle rises and descents
were laid beneath the sun
a sphere rests midriff
rolls in the lowland
burnt orange expanse
cupped cradled
before it collapsed
into her side
sun and soul
synergy
silence
slips
shhhh

    >This is beautiful. It reminds me of the scene in the film version of "The English Patient" where Katharine Clifton is lying on her side and her profile looks like the mountain shaped like a woman's back.

    >Very sensual discription. I loved the image you left in my head. I often compare Snowdon to a Lady, and the mountain ranges of my home look like a sleeping giantess. Well done x
