At the top of Joppenberg mountain, the Rondout River streams.
Off the river the sun reflects, radiant November beams.
As part of the Rosendale rail Trail, the Trestle provides great views.
All these years I've lived here, this spot I never knew.
As my eyes pan 360, the mountains against sky blue,
I can see and smell the smoke, from a neighbor's fireplace flue.
Quaint Victorian homes are nestled along the river.
So lucky in love, with this view from above, without November's shiver.
The air is comfy and calm, no wind on the mountain peak.
I thank the good Lord for giving me this view, there's nothing I need to tweak.
A time to be alone and revel in nature's glory.
A simple hike to the top of my town, created this Rosendale story...
