Sunlight and Shadows


Climbing Mountains

Climbing mountains – upward trail

Step by step this height to scale

Gurgling brook measuring time

On a long and steadfast climb

Climbing mountains – up so high

Rolling peaks touch clear blue sky

So far above our place and time

The height, the power of the climb

Climbing mountains – safe retreat

The place where sky and mountains meet

Towering rocks stand strong through time

A shelter from the weary climb

Climbing mountains – heart aglow

Traveling back to earth below

Hold this treasure for all time

The hope, the victory of the climb
