The summit

Lorenz

I've reached  the top of the mountain .

So rough was the road ,I  stumbled 

several time on the other side of life .

Now I contemplate the harmonious plain

and the dawn  will break over the peaceful temple,

the enigmatic smile of the monk accompany me...

Away from the hustle and bustle 

and all the vanities of ephemeral hours ,

senseless parody  of sentiments 

stuck in the continent of the moment...

How sweet the path to a short infinity seems

where cool waterfalls  sooth the soul 

and the aroma of wild flowers rest the mind 

on  the next side of life ...

To conquer the summit ,I lowered my gaze 

 on the remains of  so many illusions ...

Under the wise and cold stars ,I'm  going 

to spend my last day as a dreamer free of its chains...
