A Visit to Yellow Mountain

I was here at last! Standing at the foot of Yellow Mountain, I tried to convince myself that I was where I was. It was a hot day, and the sky was clear of clouds. We were sweating even before we began to climb the mountain early in the morning. The steps were so numerous that they looked like a ribbon winding its way to the sky. All along the way, birds were chirping among the trees and bushes, where leaves were stirring with every movement of the pure mountain air. Now and then a mountain stream ran down, leaping from rock to rock and filling the valley with laughing murmurs. When I looked up occasionally, the mountain tops could be seen clearly against the vast blue sky. I went on cheerfully, leaving my companions behind most of the time. When we came to the Guest-Greeting Pine, all of us were very excited. She stood at the edge of an overhanging rock, stretching out her hands to us. How friendly she and the Yellow Mountain were !
