a beautiful place a gem of a find

Image: Precariously from
a Distance (here)

the 10 of the 12 given words:
hillside summer faint guests terrace 
melting bite glittering teams axe

perched atop by the hillside
precariously from a distance
but strongly positioned like a rock
a weekend retreat for the summer

faintly visible but known to the
many guests frequently seen at the
terrace a melting pot of various
nationalities ready to pounce

such is a bite into the standing
of affluence of the selected crowd

glittering teams of the rich with an
axe to grind upon the masses do
frequently stream in across the floor
of the palatial home of the host

a beautiful place a gem of a find
for the rich and famous there

the world is a beautiful place

  1. The rich and the famous are lucky most times. Ha, we can only sigh at this, "...beautiful place a gem of a find"...

  2. Wonderful words and photo Hank. I was most taken with Yosemite National Park when I was in the US some years ago also Niagara Falls. Wonderful views.

  4. Another "gated" community? I drove into one of those reserved compounds once, and was stopped and asked to disappear. I didn't know how to vanish, so I made a U-turn and drove out. Twas Beautiful indeed.

  6. It does look and sound like the most beautiful place. But the company would be too rich for me. Smiles.
