Spellbound

When first seen a seed is planted,

Now there they are, in your mind.

For these fells they call to you,

"Come then, see what you will find."

Come we do, and up we climb

Way up to their lofty heights.

And there, spellbound by utter beauty,

We marvel at the sights.

The mountain in the picture is Skiddaw Chris, we have climbed it many times from all sides, a beautiful mountain. A real favourite of mine.
