The Mountain

I climbed the frozen peaks 
battling  the harsh winds 
blinding snow 
dared to jump the gaps 
braved the ice patches 
exhausted as I advanced 
I came to the top 
and saw 
the majesty of the night sky 
the lights 
the stars speaking into my soul 
yet I could not stop thinking 
excitedly 
of the next journey
