A peaceful moment for you today

The Dolomites mountain range in Puez-Geisler National Park, Italy
https://www.redbookmag.com/life/g4595/beautiful-nature-photos-around-the-world/

I reached the Alps: the soul within me burned
Italia, my Italia, at thy name:
And when from out the mountain’s heart I came
And saw the land for which my life had yearned,
I laughed as one who some great prize had earned:

Sonnet on Approaching Italy
By Oscar Wilde, Irish poet & playwright (1854-1900)
