my legs are jars of sand
fear's a spider
climbing my spine, with last

mountain, shimmering blue-
beehive of pines-
my tongue throbs for lake's cool
not warm green tea-
below, panorama
winks, bubbling green
Lake Louise from the middle of the hike up to Lake Agnes Tea House. The trail took us 2 hours to climp up and 1.5 hours to hike down.
