No longer cold or dolorous, the gleaming mountains loom High ecstasy freed jubilantly, artistry recaptures When undulating streams of stone, quickened with lava hands, Seize pyramids and carve them into bodies heat enraptures! Though movement turn to weariness, now evening shadows near, And amethyst and gold and silvered blue no longer rise (A demon's conflagration solved in clouds and cooled to sleep): Mad Angelo still proves that marble lived -- and never dies! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CALIFORNIA SORROW: MOUNTAIN VIEW by MARY KINZIE CONTRA MORTEM: THE MOUNTAIN FASTNESS by HAYDEN CARRUTH GREEN MOUNTAIN IDYL by HAYDEN CARRUTH IF IT WERE NOT FOR YOU by HAYDEN CARRUTH FESTOONS OF FISHES by ALFRED FRANCIS KREYMBORG PEEWEE by ALFRED FRANCIS KREYMBORG .....
