Upon Scafell, where clouds embrace the sky,
A solemn peak stands tall in ancient grace,
Its rocky slopes in mist and shadow lie,
A timeless watch upon this sacred place.
The winds that howl across its rugged height
Carry the whispers of forgotten days,
As sunlight fades to gentle evening light,
And paints the stone with soft, ethereal rays.
To climb its path, a journey steep and long,
Through crag and cranny, nature’s hand has made,
Each step a test, yet every heart grows strong,
As mountaineers in silent awe have prayed.
Oh, Scafell Pike, where earth and sky are one,
You stand eternal 'neath the setting sun.
About the Creator

I strive to make sense of the world through writing. I break it apart, twist it, and bend it until it reflects new light. I invite you to see the world cast through my written stained-glass windows.
