Ten Poems about Mountains

Ten poems about mountains, edited by poet Helen Mort and published by Candlestick Press as part of their 'instead of a card' series, is a small pamphlet anthology gathering ten poems that celebrate mountains and the landscapes around them.

The collection explores the awe, humility, and sense of scale that mountains inspire in those who climb, walk, or simply gaze up at them, capturing both the physical challenge of high places and the quieter wonder of encountering nature's grandeur.

Designed as a compact, giftable alternative to a greetings card, it offers a concentrated dose of landscape poetry for walkers, climbers, and lovers of the outdoors alike.
