Hello dear Wanderers!
If you're on a quest to reignite that fiery passion and envelop yourselves in the essence of romance this Valentine's Day, allow us to guide you to a place of wonder and affection—the majestic Pocono Mountains.
A History of Profound Inspiration
The mountain landscape, with its towering peaks, verdant valleys, and whispering forests, has a unique way of inspiring profound connections, both with the natural world and with those we share these experiences. In the majestic presence of mountains, life's frenetic pace slows, allowing us to breathe deeply and truly see the person beside us.
The profound verses of celebrated poet and Pennsylvania native H.D. (Hilda Doolittle) captured the complexities of love and nature, drawing inspiration from the very landscapes that provide countless couples the space needed to escape and rediscover each other.
Give me the streams' cold path,
the grove of pine,
for garden terrace
the unclaimed
bleak
wild stretches
of the mountain side.
Give me no earth
crushed flat
with cruel layer
of fitted square
or metered length,
but boulders
unhewn
but set apart
as secret altars
high in the loveliest
alder grove
or poplar.
Excerpt from All Mountains by H.D.
November 1925
The grandeur of these landscapes prompts introspection and a sense of awe that can deepen our bonds. As we navigate trails or simply admire the view from a mountain overlook, we're reminded of the enduring power of nature to bring us together. It's in these moments, against the backdrop of the Pocono Mountains' breathtaking beauty, that conversations flow more freely, silences become more comfortable, and our shared experiences knit us closer together. The mountains, with their timeless beauty and quiet majesty, become a sanctuary for rekindling connections, fostering an environment where love and friendship flourish under the open sky.
