Eagles Dare

You climb up a mountain
for the beautiful view

Its challenge seductive,
a call to renew

The higher it takes you
the farther you see

With freedom the distance 
—that lies in between

I felt like you have taken flight Kurt. I have too, in my dreams.

When I teach, I always tell students to sleep with their voice recorder (I-Phone) close by. Dreamsleep is special. Thanks Caren Kurt
