You can hear the wind whistle<\/p>\n
through the rusty rock maze<\/p>\n
dropping away vertically<\/p>\n
a thousand meters downward<\/p>\n
into a river which stretches onward<\/p>\n
through shifting sands of red desert<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You can almost see the sun<\/p>\n
and its halo of fire<\/p>\n
behind clouds of grey storm<\/p>\n
that wrap and blanket the sky<\/p>\n
looming over earth with shadows<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Rolling over the snow caps<\/p>\n
of distant mountains<\/p>\n
cloaked in fog<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Connected by the plains<\/p>\n
round knuckles of grass<\/p>\n
brimming with dew<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You are the brave soul<\/p>\n
who walks this silent land<\/p>\n
stepping forward<\/p>\n
through rain falling from dusk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
