Crane Mountain Summit, Adirondacks
Steep climbing into more rare air underscores
how what is most immediate takes primacy
You may even suspect an expansive mind
goes before your own like explorers’ scouts
Knowing-ahead was essential to their role,
to evoke the intuitive grounded in experience
Each encounter with the unknown may ape
unlocking our entire panoply of experience
as Beauty and Sanctity chat across disciplines
like circus barkers auditioning for Heaven.

Ed,
It took a couple of readings but once it came together, or my brain came together with it☺️, this is a very cool poem.
Hey Bob
