I have climbed mountains.. 
                to feel clouds touch my face
                  I have seen places where rainbows stood.
Paths have been blazed by colors so brilliant
They have burned memories in the chambers of my heart.
Land long used by others.. to build a great nation
They were those here... before we began to count time.
              Hills in the distance seemed close.... 
             I could touch peaks with my finger. 
              Valleys spoke to me.. voices of life still lived....
where the mountain waters flowed into fertile fields. 
     I have climbed a mountain....of sharing our space
   the giving was natural. 
Gifts are as simple as the view from grace. 
Great Spirit spoke through the trees and animals
Allowing all of Creation to express it's soul. 
Vette had invited me... come.... 
Climb her mountain and see worlds... 
Places your being thought had died....are found
The moment you have.... 
A mountain to climb.
