			Vintage Colorado Poetry Poem of the Week July 11, 2005
		Belle Turnbull, of Colorado Springs and Breckenridge, was a schoolteacher, novelist, and poet.
	Mountain Road Following the trail's will, Skirting round a boulder, I came upon a gravel road Across the hill's shoulder. Rain had washed it maiden-smooth ; And---oh, but this was sweet!--- The only tracks I saw on it Were of a rabbit's feet. --Belle Turnbull Reprinted from The Measure: A Journal of Poetry.
