Mountain Top Explorations

Your boot-clad feet kick up the trail dust
I follow close behind, matching your pace
Wildflowers border the trail like a colorful carpet
We climb higher, I breathe hard and my feet grow heavy
As we round a bend you stop suddenly
We gaze in awe at the spectacle before us
A snow-capped mountain and a lake shining like a jewel
You take my hand and we sit on a log to rest
Our eyes meet and I see the joy and love
We move closer, our lips touch, and I hold my breath
It seems that we have become one with all around us
