Mountain, Mine


The ordeal of the day being almost done
and I alone, standing as one.
From the mountain top I see you,
ground beneath your feet as you run,
holding out my hand to grab on
so that you will take me with you.

I don't want to be left behind, here
to stand by my own.
No mountain could make me stay
when you turn away. Climb the highest heights,
defy every spirit in the sky
just to make it back, for I must always be near to you,
even if I am many miles away.

(An original KLM poem)

For my Family and all the people that I love.
