The View.

Bold and boundless, the view I saw,

Counting mountains and clouds that soar.
Danger lurking at the dangling cliffs

Emerging mists that cleared with the drift.

Frightful ventures to reach, long forgotten.

Garish memories set aside for now.

Hopeful words sing in my heart

I watch as the sun sets the sky ablaze.

Just a moment, my breath caught

Kissed by the wind, my hair flies in the draught.

Looking lost with my eyes in a daze,

My mind wanders - the view, a haze.

Not one moment, to this, compares.

Open my senses, consumed in beauty

Places, I’ve never been to before.

Flood out of my sight, as I awaken.
