My quest
is not to conquer
Mount Everest:
what I've set
for myself
can never
be compared
with the rest's-

on my unknown path
I silently tread
hoping to realise
in some distant day
what I've desired
thereupon no more
will I seek-
my tired feet
will be laid
to rest
and I know
at the journey's end
I'll be richly blessed
