Poem: Mountain


steady steps toward the mountain
though sharp it rises to meet sky;
standing at the base and knowing
to climb will take all heart and life.

Scaling mountain to reach sky
below the peak a green valley lies;
with determined steps down again
what's been lost is not important.

Focused and light with righteous purpose
like a bird that flies home on air;
passing each valley and peak with ease
until reaching the promised shore.
