Mountain Range

Pink skies top off the dark mountain range
I wonder about wandering all the way there
Just to discover a few things, I’d like to know
Feel the freedom of my footsteps in the snow
As if the distance has the answers and…
Steps to take me closer will help me understand
So much more than I can from sitting on this land
The pink skies turn to lavender, as night approaches
With limited time to see, so I imagine and I will dream
What it will be like at the distant range that knows 
As it fades into darkness and the ground of white glows

Hello Heidi, I have always wondered what is on top of a mountain. I sense that the view would be beautiful to see. Enjoy your evening my friend.
