Wrong Turn On A Mountain Trail
(And yet we all four survived to tell)
Some where near the summits call
As luck would have it after all
We ventured on through hazards way
Tempting fate that summer’s day
But at last we climbed into the space
And looking out with wonder on our face
From Robber’s Roost we gazed down on
The valley beneath this massive stone
To the peaks across on the other side
Eyes transfixed on the beauty spied
We had escaped our folly with much to tell
And now we stared as if under a spell
Fulfilled in heart by adventures thrill
We stood on legs that wobbled still
As others had emerged from their stay
And promptly departed the other way
What had we done what was our thought
When we took the way of danger fraught
We took a wrong turn on a mountain trail
And yet we all four survived to tell
