My Regal Seat

I stood upon a mountain tall, 
Feeling like the lord of all.
My kingdom spread beneath my feet, 
Ruling from my mighty seat.

Then just for the briefest time
I imagined that these fells were mine.
That I could stay and never go 
How I wished it could be so.

It is always with a heavy heart 
When reluctantly, I must depart
I loathe to leave my regal seat, 
Up here at three thousand feet.
