I am

a landscape

of dogwood

and sleet

and tawny sunsets

to tune you to sleep.

I will fascinate you

with treasures I hold

and fasten us together with needles of gold.

I am forest, horizon, and endless sunrise.

I am evergreen and glowing, forever alive.

I am Kisatchie and my hills are rarest, deepest blue.

I am love

and I am filled

when I reach and share with you.
