“One of a Kind” – Zhangjiajie National Park, China

Within a land of hills and trees stands mountainous rocks
That tower above the valley low.
Greenery that grows into the misty sky above the clouds that drift quietly by.
It is a place of mystic joy, a place of peace, in an earthly plane.
An exotic land that spans the ancient space and time.
It is one of a kind… envisioned by Universal Mind.
It’s uniqueness for all to see…a divine mystery
Of the old and new China entwined.
The beauty and intrigue of such a spot
Is a haven for a heavenly lot.
A place where time has stopped
As the world swirls out of control
The Lord creates a place for spirits to play.
And man to comprehend the holy scrolls.
It is a place that takes your breath away.
A place to kneel and pray.
A place where ancients lay
In a land of the old and new entwined
A place for all to see their own inner Divinity

Today I am leaving for a trip to China. I will be gone for two weeks and will be back on line by July 4th. I am not sure how much access I will have to the internet but if possible I will post from China pictures and thoughts of this incredible experience. Once I return I will have a lot to catch up on… so keep on writing and I look forward to reading your post soon.
Today’s poem was inspired by this photo of Zhangiiajie Park in China. I first posted this poem in May 2012 and today with minor changes I hope you enjoy it.

Have a safe and beautiful trip, Mary. I love this piece. As I mentioned to someone the other day – I’ve heard people ask at various times, ‘where is God’. Places such as this remind me of what I know – where is He not? We are surrounded by the proof and assured of forever even more. Thank you for this and for you. Be safe, Mary. ~ All my love, Bobbie
Hope you have a pleasant trip my friend, take care.
Love,
mei
Safe travels Mary!
Beautiful poem, Mary, and have a wonderful and safe trip! Looking forward to photos upon your return! Take care, Lauren
Have a pleasant trip! 🙂
So very beautiful, both the poem and the awesome picture! God bless!
