Lonely At the Top

Rocks splattered all over,
big and small,
I was trying to have a ball,
in nature's mall,
I was wandering aimlessly,
in the mountains,
and had climbed a few,
and was thinking of doing the others,
they were not mountains,
at least not that height,
something lesser,
may be to call them hillocks,
is just about right,
so I did leg on to the third one,
this was the highest of the lot,
I reached the peak,
and saw with a sharp geek,
as far as the sight could see,
I could see only heights,
barren ,rocky tough heights,
and of course the ground undulating,
that lay in between,
I watched that for hours,
in the cold wind that blew across,
probably I could have been enthused much more,
and more ideas would have come to me,
but the one that stuck in most,
was its really lonely at the top,
and there is not much to look and stop.
