Peaceful Mountains

Glide.

Spread your wings and float

Above peaceful mountains.

As the day begins with a splash of rose.

Simply drift.

For Purple Mountains

View Room

The sky is gray

            And clouds form . . .

                        Imaginary shapes.

 The sun falls low

            And rays reflect . . .

                        Of gold.

 For purple mountains

            Strengthen a . . .

                        Timeless moment!

Smokies High

View Room

Evening comes and the last of the sun’s rays

Play across the sky and lights a world,

Of purple mountains.

Hiking on a trail, you are Smokies High.

Take this moment for it will soon be gone.

Touch of Red

View Room

Flowers are blessings from God.

From seeds they come . . . His magic!

Such beauty when the blooms unfold,

And with a touch of red . . . The Hibiscus!

Early Morning Walk

Come on an early morning walk with me,

When the cove is washed in a purple haze,

And hushed with a silent sigh.

We are all children of the forest,

And these mountains are our grace . . .

A walk in them gives us strength!

Triplets

Born of one mother,

   Brothers and sisters,

        We are three.

On spindly legs

   We carry our spots

         For protection.

We prance . . .

OUR ROOMS

Our 13 individually styled bedrooms each possess a unique character and are named after Vern's timeless paintings adorning the mantle of their fireplaces.

The Woods Addition

Spring Beauties

The wildflowers play in the Smokies,

Everywhere . . . We are blessed.

And the Spring beauties come to dance

To the song of the fairies.

Sunrise Sunset

Purple clouds float across  a mountain sky

With golden linings . . .  and we dream.

Amidst the color on transparent wings,

A red-tailed hawk glides . . . and we smile.

The sun hangs low i In a blaze of orange,

Sunrise, sunset . . . aren’t we blessed!
