GRANITE HANDS, by ELIZABETH ROBERTS First Line: The great granite hands of the mountain Last Line: Strong hands were built for shelter. Subject(s): Mountains; Hills; Downs (great Britain) | |||
The great granite hands of the mountain Hold so gently such fragile things; Aspens and wild roses, Shy deer and timid rabbits, Tiny chipmunks and little birds, The thin veil of falling waters, Wind drifting through the pines, Mist and sunset colors And shifting cloud shadows. Strong hands were built for shelter. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CALIFORNIA SORROW: MOUNTAIN VIEW by MARY KINZIE CONTRA MORTEM: THE MOUNTAIN FASTNESS by HAYDEN CARRUTH GREEN MOUNTAIN IDYL by HAYDEN CARRUTH IF IT WERE NOT FOR YOU by HAYDEN CARRUTH SPRING WOODS by ELIZABETH ROBERTS |
