The Climb

I’ve finished my climb
And I looked upon the beautiful scenery
The sunset was as beautiful as a flower
Orange and pink
Blossoming on the horizon
And coating the mountains
Topped with whipped cream snow
I am on the roof of the world
Every bone in my body
Shivers with the beauty of the earth
Sometimes in life
We don’t really realize what is important
Until we look back on our crazy lives
And see them for the tiny things they really are
A mere whisper compared to what awaits
In the afterlife
This flower
Opening
To the sun of the next stage
Of this great adventure
