Ridges and crevices line their faces, valleys and hills rise along their backs.
Dark cool shadows, fill small valleys, as peaks glow and shimmer in the bright, glowing sun.
A rainbow of warm earthy colors, changing with each passing hour.
Tall cacti and stubby shrubs grow out of their rocky surface.
Weathering storms, monsoons, drought and humans.
Feet traverse their beaten paths day in and day out, a small stampede.
Climbing up and up, always trying to reach the top.
Beautiful against the cloudless, sapphire sky.
Their peaks an outline, backlit by a setting sun.
A life size compass, providing stability and safety.
Marking the way, a piece of home.
