Premiere Contest WinnerCalling

I heard the call from o'er the hills,

Often, do I hear it still.

Come it calls, come and climb

Come unto a place sublime.

Walk amongst a land of dreams

Refresh your soul by mountain streams.

Walk above the clouds and there,

Breathe the purest mountain air.

Come then, let your spirit fly

Walk the fells, touch the sky.

Congratulations, Gary - well deserved indeed. A terrific cleanliness (like those high altitude realms) and great meter and pacing.

Thank you Jan, the fells are really beautiful at the moment they are covered with snow.
