The mountain tips pierce the sky
A blend of blue and white
But as the sun bids it goodbye
It gives way to a starry night

Whether in snow, rain, or clouds
It's all part of its make
No lightning bright or thunder loud
Can make its being shake

The freedom it represents to all
Is a feeling that will stay
No typhoon big or earthquake small
Can easily call it away

For eagle's wings were meant to soar
Without a trace of fear
Secure feelings of joy and more
Fill up the atmosphere

I was typing and needed some inspiration. When I looked outside my window I saw the big, blue sky and started typing about that.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
