broken hearts upon crags of old
tears run like a fountain
his heart an avalanche, stone cold
as the crest of mountains

tears run like a fountain
parted by this great divide
as the crest of mountains
leaves no place to hide

parted by this great divide
cowering from constant bombardment
leaves no place to hide
plummeting from high escarpments

cowering from constant bombardment
broken hearts upon crags of old
plummeting from high escarpments
his heart an avalanche, stone cold
Written in response to :icondeviantliterature:'s prompt for November 2015.

Written in the form of Pantoum Which seemed a lot simpler than it proved to be! Very fun to work with though.

This fulfills two of the prompts, one to write a pantoum and the other prompt "He is like a mountain"
 
This poem reflects my feelings about my father. More explanation Here and Here
