Two faced

A wee holiday homage to the *mountain which calls us back year on year in all its majesty and mystical moodiness.

Bathed in sunshine

Proudly preening

Showing off your best sides

Strong and uncompromising

Hard to navigate

Yet known to many

An institution

A companion

A gemini landmark

Fleeting shadows flit

Across your faces

Changing moods

Hardening features

Shifting in duality

An old man used to say

“Y’r aw shite or aw sugar”

That polarity of character

Emotionally unstable

Now you cover your faces

Hide behind the cloud

Surly and songless

Brooding over the landscape

Forked tongue ready to lash

We must simply wait

For your sulk to lift

Your faces to adjust

Demeanour steadied anew

*Pedraforca is a mountain in the Pre-Pyrenees, located in the comarca of Berguedà. The mountain's rare form, along with the fact that it is not visibly connected to any other adjacent mountains or ridges, has made it one of the most famous and emblematic mountains in Catalonia, the northeastern most region of Spain.
