I Am A Mountain

I am a mountain, not high, not low 
To my shoulders, the sunshines glow 
To my streams, the waters flow
To nurse the creatures down below 

I am the measure of someone's fame 
At times, I put the fuels to flame 
Those who cherish a glorious name 
Dare to play in my own game 

To some dreamers, I'm next to heaven 
My forest glades are safe haven 
My green hue makes the odds even 
It makes the dying hearts enliven 

My green jungles are paradise 
To some hearts as cold as ice 
I mend the burdens of the eyes 
More, when the sun is on the rise
