Love's Beauty
I climbed upon a mountain top,
hoping I could see
the world and all its beauty,
held captive just for me
But, as I climbed to reach the top
the clouds, they blocked my view.
So, I just sat and waited there
and saw images of you.
And now the clouds, they blew away.
The sky had turned to blue.
The world and all its beauty
couldn’t hold a candle to you.
I descended from the mountain top
with that vision, I did steal.
I learned, despite all beauty
my love for you is real.
