Climbing A Mountain.

Goldfinch60



In our lives we must keep going,

Just putting one foot in front of another.

We will journey through our lives

And one day you look back and see,

See that you have climbed a mountain,

The mountain of life

With the summit a long way ahead,

But will be reached in time.

    You are my first read in many moons my friend and never fail to let me know, maybe I'm at the peak and should just really start to enjoy the show.

    Always a pleasure

    • Goldfinch60

      Certainly enjoy your life Dan, you have come a long way.

      Great to see you back.

        Good write Gold.
        I'm reading about some mounts in the Antarctica, and some terrible journeys.
        On one journey - why couldn't they leave the penguins alone? They wanted some of their eggs for research. A chapter is called 'Never Again' by one of the explorers.
        Why does mankind have to turn up, and mess up things sometimes? Nature is mostly all OK until man turns up - like I did in 1066. Doh!

        • Goldfinch60

          Very true Orchi, some people just cannot leave the good things in our lives alone.

          You'll start me off singing, with that Finlandia: 'We rest on thee, our shield and our defender' hymn.

            Luckily I have my earplugs in!!

            "Look - no crampons!"

            The day you sit back in your favourite armchair and relax too much is the day the mountain disappears.

            • Goldfinch60

              So true Paul, but not yet.

              Each step is a notch toward another milestone. That appears to be all that can be done for the moment. Hope there is, for later leaps and bounds. A stepping start is better than none. Thanks for sharing, Andy. /Rik.

                Thank you Rik, we must keep walking up that path each day.

                Life is good. Yes. Always

              • Blueledge

                I'd more than likely walk in a big circle and end up in the same place Andy.
                It's my sense of direction.

                • Goldfinch60

                  That may happen Blue but if you move out of that circle life will be wonderful.
