Ursa's Kingdom
In the wilderness
never-never go it alone
But if you do.
Leave your itinerary with a loved one.
Always carry a cell phone...
If ever you become lost or hobbled
these things have been known
to turn into divining rod angels.
In the mountains, layering up is always best.
The cold closes in quickly.
Hypothermia is the first cousin of death.
Do carry some serious caliber.
A can of pepper spray on hand.
You never know who or what's
creeping 'round the next blind bend.
Do remember it's Ursa's Kingdom
she harbors the strength of a God
and for certain has no fear of man,
Some folks are naive and stubborn.
Ignoring most of the advice.
Tempting the unknown of a mountain's black soul.
On the last grizzled path of their lives.
