Listen To the Call Up On High

During these Covid-19 days so sad when an walking trip is not on cue so missing in one's fondest memories a trip on high seems so long overdue My own favourite place to climb is in the English Lakes so fair down there a mountain is a fell many a challenge to make one dare When one is considering such a peak there's a voice whispering in your ear to go on up to such great heights there's no room in you to be in fear Listen to the call up on high it draws you like a magnet touch as I climbed Skiddaw, Blencathra and Catbells these feels were exhilarating always so much The views so breathtaking when on top making every effort worth it's while the call indeed looks for a voice, 'I must go' go but it won't be a strolling country mile (Quote: "The mountains are calling, and I must go.") The quotation was made by John Muir, a Scottish-American environmentalist, who was known as the "father of our national parks," and who was an early advocate for the preservation of the wilderness areas in the United States.
