Mount Huashan Hiking Trail

The scenario quickly turned dark,
And his chance of survival was stark
 But he only would say,
Concerning that day,
"Well, it wasn't a walk in the park!"

    Are you sure this is not something from "The Lords of the Rings?"

    Fantastic picture, now I have to put it out of my mind!

    If you follow the link you can see a lot more pictures of this treacherous hike. Fortunately they have added some safety measures since this picture was taken, but it is still a dangerous trek.

    I'm getting nervous just looking at the photograph. The poem perfectly compliments the view. ☼

    Whilst everyone seems to be focusing on the picture, your words, few as they are, really are quite touching. All in all, a delightful piece.

    I keep trying to comment on your blog but nothing works. Sorry. I enjoy the way you weave your words into the artwork so beautifully.
