The Legend of the Blue Hills

The blue hills are always there Always on the edge Below the sand dune Clouds Above The blue hills are always there Waiting to be climbed Crossed Conquered They seek to challenge One's compassion They are there Uncrossable yet destined to Be crossed Following The elephantine footsteps Of Hannibal. You can reach the blue hills If you keep Moving towards them Step by step by step Your march Your parade Your pilgrimage Will reach these mystic hills Climb the summit Beyond is the world And beyond the world are the blue hills The blue hills are always there Waiting to be climbed There will always be more hills Always Always Always You can conquer one Then the next The next Next They will continue coming Do not fight the mountain The hills will always win What is our choice is Whether we acknowledge That the hills are eternal And stop because we cannot win this fight Or Keep walking Climb every mountain Because the next one will always be there See every view Embrace each wind And fall in love with the eternal sky Above the blue hills
