Peaks

Oh, to rise o’er sun-drenched valleys

Cut and carved by friendly waters

In a questful sure meander

As they search for lower ground.

 

You have towered eons gone

To capture an unbroken sky,

Long before foot, fin or hoof

Arrived to desecrate your Eden.

 

Looking down on crystal waters

Gathered pristine at your feet.

First to witness Sun’s horizon,

Smiling as you greet the dawn.

 

Gazing at your peaks with envy.

Oh, to be so close to God.

Let me lift a pensive plea

That I may be as wise as you.
