on the hill

2 04 2008

When i was twenty, i climbed a hill.

Restless and wild, i couldn’t stand still.

There was no path, i made my own,

Happily did i leap from stone to stone.

Far above stood a solitary figure,

hesitant i was for solitude was dear.

flowers in full bloom fell at her feet,

under a tree, a goddess did i meet.

her voice was the wind, what do you seek?

a purpose in life, my road looks bleak.

a smile she gave and a kiss so tender,

i was dazed but that i did remember.

i climbed the hill many times after,

she was gone, never did i see her.

but the mist had lifted, my path was clear,

moment to moment, a stone skipping on water.
