MOUNTAINS.
God give me mountains With hills at their knees, Mountains too high For the flutter of trees; Mountains that know The dark valleys of death. That have kissed a pale star And felt its last breath; And still lift the dawn In a goldsn rimmed cup— God give me mountains. And strength to climb up! —Leigh Buckner Hanes, in the Lyric.
