Could the moon be a peep-hole?

Could the sun be a spot light?

Could the stars be pinpricks of the eternal?

 

Could the ocean be shedding tears?

Could the tides be inflections in a voice?

Could the waves be ballroom dancing?

 

Could the mountains be a la mode?

Could the foothills be out for a stroll?

Could the valleys be hoarding  echoes?

 

Could I tag along child, and wonder around with you?

Could you share your imagination with me?

Could we see if God brought something for show and tell?

    I love the idea of mountains “a la mode.”

    As a child I wondered whether the trees at the lake created the wind. It was always winder by when I walked to the edge of Lake Ontario. When I walked through my dad’s orchard where the trees were smaller there was less wind. The taller the tree, the more wind it creates. Perfectly logical to a child.
