Mountains to Climb
By Dee Rusin, Kenai
Always another mountain to climb
Once reached the top
You never can stop
Always another mountain to climb
Always a long valley below
Step by step it’s always so slow
Where it will lead you is hard to know
Always a long valley below
Always a rocky trail to follow
Through a dark scary wood
To a frightening hollow
Always a rocky trail to follow
Always a river too deep you must cross
Sometimes it’s narrow and covered with moss
A wild roily challenge it may mean a loss
Always a river too deep you must cross
Always a meadow with soft wavy grass
So rest for a while and let the time pass
All calm and peaceful although it won’t last
Always a meadow with soft wavy grass
Always another mountain to climb
So it continues time after time
Always another mountain to climb
