Mountains

She is big, towering over villages, giving shade to those who live there.
I wonder how she got so tall.
She sounds like a loud whisper spreading across the village.
She smells like fresh pure air, not touched, only heard.
She tastes like fresh water evaporating in the wind.
I see her sitting waiting for a hiker.
I want to climb her and have her talk to me through the wind.
I ask her, "How did you get so tall”?
She says, "You need to believe”.
She is big, towering over villages, giving shade to those who live there.
