Hills

Hills on top of fathomless hills

Where I have built my home

I walked here through the driest desserts

Swam here through the deepest seas

Hiked here through blizzards on mountains

A little piece taken each moment

Until I reached these hills

At top the rise of the earth

I look out at the universe

I can look out and say

I have been here

I have left my mark

Where it is the most important

I can look at the people building

Their homes and dreams and goals

And know they to will stand about

Their own hill, they will know that they

Made a difference in the world

Just by breathing the air

By making one laugh

And with that I may stray to the Mothers

Arms

And be sound , knowing I did my part
