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.
