Mongolian Night
Horses galloping
Almost too dark to see
Jumping foals delight
Quick lightning flashes
Bright clouds beyond mountain ridge
Thunder drawing close
Fire in the ger stove
Candlelight glows, cozy, warm
Rain outside? Who cares?
Too cozy with fire?
Shedding another layer!
Who needs clothes in ger?
Step outside for air
Glowing half moon through clouds peaks
River lullaby
Mountain River Steppe
Mongolian dreams are real
Sleeping in a ger
