The Hills

Cold as the hills
I feel the chills
Running through my veins

Up in the hills
I’ve taken spills
And still can feel the pains

I’ve seen the hills
Where everything fills
All because of the rains

Ski down the hills
Do it for thrills
For excitement in your brains

Through the hills
Men with skills
Are driving about their trains

Out in the hills
If anyone wills
It is he who wants that remains

On some of these hills
There are things with quills
I can think of a couple of names

In some pools in the hills
There are creatures with gills
Will not breath if the water just drains

Birds fly over the hills
Even over landfills
I have even seen whooping cranes

I’m still cold as the hills
And can still feel the chills
I will warm as my energy gains
