Green Mountain Ferns

Green mountain ferns. Line the winding road
Over the edge, a view of the mountains 
Counting the hours till I get back to you 
My safety. My security. My secret sanctuary. 

Ancient trees they look down on me
As I wondrously look up at them 
The sun is slowly begining to fade now
That last bit of bright yellow 

The golden hour it is
I honestly don't know why I do this
Something pulls me towards you
This engine I know is leading me somewhere

Where will I end up in this life?
I must stay in the moment.  This mountain such a site. Climbing.  Climbing.  Climbing 
Am i ready for the fall? Staring at the green mountain ferns and these trees so tall.
