When I cross
your path again
I’ll build a cairn
for you, my friend –
.
and all who pass
shall add a stone
and ne’er shall
we be alone.

Sunlight hugs our path
curling around each corner
leading with promise.

How hard it is to see
the highest mountain for the trees
until we hear the ancient knock
of thunder sky and molten rock.
We tear away the mossy veil
that had long concealed the trail
just to find the climb is steepest
where the waterfall is deepest
and it seems we’re almost there
when we breathe the rarest air
beyond the earth, into the sun
where we learn we’ve just begun.
