beauty from a distance

from a distance,
from
a far safe place
those mountains look
beautiful,
the snowcapped peaks,
like
lace,
the green and blue
of the slopes,
full of trees
bending in the wind.
it's a postcard
worthy of Hallmark.
it reminds
me of you, 
knowing that
up close and climbing
that mountain,
you may fall and freeze,
your life may end.
