my roots are firm now
the storm stood tall
my ascent was steep
but I had good company
a herd of mountain goats
meditative travelers
of life and death
the awesome peak is in sight now
my smile has grown quieter
and my heart,
a drum that announces rain
resounding
I've seen the world
let me take a seat
and put my pen down
now my life can begin

the awesome peak is in sight now
my smile has grown quieter
and my heart,
a drum that announces rain
resounding
I've seen the world
let me take a seat
and put my pen down
now my life can begin
