The Nature of Mountains - John Peterson - Bog

This book, the nature of mountains, is poetry of the natural world where something meaningful bodies forth. The mountains are a source point that allow this to occur; this can be found in the city as well if we know how to release and go there. These poems cover leaving, dimension, your mountain, yosemite journal, and Adventures in Weather. Many years working and living in Yosemite National Park by the author help give much to this poetry. Some of these poems were presented at the Yosemite Centennial Celebration Concert in The Great Lounge of the Ahwahnee Hotel, September 2, 1990, sponsored by the National Park Service. All of us at one time or another find the pull to the mountains overwhelming, poets cannot help but draw inspiration and are compelled to write. Here is one such collection.
