Mountain big and bold,
That heals my heart from sorrow,
A true friend you are.
Thanks everybody so much for reading. This is a simple poem and my entry for the Mountain High-Ku challenge. It'd be awesome to read some of the native Japanese poems and interpret them in their own language. I imagine there is some history with the creation of the high-ku, and am curious if Japanese, as a language, lends itself better to these unique poems as I know their grammar, and word structure is different. Language is fascinating, that's a definite!
This poem has a picture of Moraine Lake, a very famous little lake beside Lake Louise located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains in Alberta, Canada

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
