Cliffs are height, tall and bright,
Valleys depth, a soft sight.
One rises with a mighty grace,
The other dips, in every place.

Valleys hollow, drawing near.
One towers with a steady heart,
The other rests, every part.

Valleys low, coming through.

The other spreads, across the land.

The other rests, a tranquil place.

Cliffs are steep, a daring face,
Valleys are hollow, nature's embrace.
One stands tall with rugged might,
The other lays, a peaceful sight.

Landscapes' Edge:

Cliffs, where heights meet endless skies,
Valleys, where depths in silence lies.
Cliffs, in rugged majesty stand tall,
Valleys, where echoes softly call.

Both together, earth's contrast,

In their union, beauty vast.
Cliffs and valleys, landscapes told,
Nature's secrets, ages old.
