THE NEXT HILL

I wonder what's over there, Chris Columbus.
What marvelous tale of adventure could be
Holding the gold, which is there for the taking;
The unabashed thrill of discovery.

Treacherous oceans offer no boundary
To those who are born with inquisitive minds.
Accepting the challenge, our hero sets sail
To the ends of the universe, only to find
That there is no end, only a bend,
Or a corner to turn to the next great adventure.
By now he is hooked and can never turn back
'Til completing the quest which began his indenture..

Green fields may call him to peace in the valley,
The creature of age may dampen his will,
But nothing on earth will quench his desire
To take up the gauntlet;
To climb the next hill.
