Landmark, Poetic Bloomings, Canada 13

 

The Sleeping Ute

 

Toronto with its new sky scrapers

mixed with old buildings and CN tower,

Niagara Falls shrouded in mist and fog,

Montreal, lovely park with city overlook,

Quebec City, a slice of France

with cobble stone streets, quaint shops

and leftover Christmas decorations.

 

Then fly over Colorado mountain ridges.

When I see the Sleeping Ute,

the mountain they say

is a wounded warrior

arms across his chest,

feather at his head,

and even his knees and toes,

then I’ll know I’m home.
