Best Trekking Poems

I.

A ring imbued with love

Is the gift we both have

Circle and boundless

Unharmed by ages

That may our love

Retain the passion

we have always had

Keep the flame

Burning in our heart

Like the ring’s

Undying gleam

May the golden ring’s

Unscathed gleam

Be an inspiration

To the usual

Fleeting feelings

II.

Let us trek together

In the path of...

Trekking The Unwary 

The beauty of this day, or is it the night
Cynical her way,  Alaskans weathers her blight
The touch of her nature, the chills from her bite
Broken mobile, lost alone, this plane of sight

My family thoughts, as it renders me warmth 
For the...

hill so kissed by clouds
invites trekking adventure
while apex beckons…

welcoming summit
quenches thirst with waterfalls
thus enthralling heart… 

midst thick canopies
muddy trails lead along rocks
as trees waft cool breeze…

soaring toward crest
surmounting hilly challenge
victor’s faith ascends…

hill* top grand delight
makes me thank God’s might.

My bag is almost full with what I can call
a house;
I'm not prepping-
greener pastures my soul seeks....

Upward,high,I move.
Treading the weedy and filthy path.
Jittery,fear,have I at stake.
Stumps,rocky stones grace the way.
Sore feet,but I trek on.
Scorpions and serpents hate,
As their territory, I invade.
Tendrils, wild hemps lay as traps.
Fear not,say I to self.
Cracking toes weep for the heated earthen mud.
Fried,made crispy by the scorching...

A tiny hamlet tucked away midst the mountains of New Hampshire
   A chill in the air; frost on the windowpane, icicle-framed
A fresh snow blanketing the ground; the silence of the holiday broken
   by the pealing of the late-afternoon bells atop the...

Life, And Trekking Across Wild Wilderness

As epic pain ebbs then subsides

Nature's steals the mountainous scene
With beauty's encompassing slides

Home, farm life, peacock yardbird preens.

Often I had crossed her path.  She had been on my mind; a natural beauty some might say.  These thoughts of her came and went.  Did she think of me, and if so, what was the meaning of this transcendence?  With...

Majestic, barren, rock-cropped braes ascend—
Arrayed, green-clad, in heather, gorse, and fern—
As mid-day, misty, dark’ning clouds descend
To cold-embrace each soaring tor and burn.

From heights unseen a torrent cascades free,
Unfettered into deep Ben Nevis’ glen;
Then onwards toward Loch Linnhe and the sea,
Through sodden bog and brackened, stone-strewn...
