Carpe Diem

The mountains look down their nose at us all.
With disdain they find the facts of mans fall.

They remember those who climbed their north face.
Made it to the top then to outer space.

If only we knew just what we would find.
Alien spieces of the divine kind?

Maybe we should stick to a simple thing.
Like flying a kite or learning to sing.

There is a reason we must sieze the day. 
before they find a new fangled way!
