The journey

Higher is better. Nothing is promised when you aim low.

A creek so clear

It’s almost see thru

Thirst, the taste of dust

I forget what I came thru


The desert was a spell

Its sky a millions watts

The reasons not known

I, burning, without a hat


Hope alone weighed a ton

A burden not be undone

This weight, I egged on

Slow march, in to the dawn


The scenes changed slowly

Something new, a river valley

Moist, cool, green shine

I’m Here, its pretty, alpine!
