PURPLE MOUNTAINS MAJESTY

The sky is dark--all one color.
The mountain in the distance,
Reflecting the light of the moon,
Appears to look like a cloud.

The sun looms behind the mountain,
Casting elongated shadows
Across the plain.
Little wisps of clouds
That look like charcoal dusting
From an artist's brush.

As the sun slowly rises
To brighten the day,
The mountain's darkened
By its shadow.
And like magic, there it is,
PURPLE MOUNTAINS MAJESTY!

The most beautiful
He has ever seen,
Elongated shadows on the plain
And PURPLE MOUNTAINS MAJESTY.
