    Mountain and Desert

    Should I climb the mountain to reach your heart?
    All the paths are rocky and slope is steep
    But the air is crystal and sky is blue
    Should I climb the mountain to reach your heart?

    Should I go through the desert to touch your hand?
    Even heat is exhausting and send is dry
    But the stars are the brightest there at night
    Should I go through the desert to touch your hand?

    No… I only have to jump in my car
    And drive for an hour to come to your place
    And just fall in your arms and forget the world
    Yes I only have to jump in my car

    I am sure I’ll be able to touch your hand
    But it’s not that easy to reach your heart
    Only hour of driving --easy way
    But the Mountain and Desert still in place…

    FB, The uncertainty of live requited is in here. And your analogies using nature to get to a heart is alluring. It seems that the car would get you there too fast and the effort to walk through a treacherous landscape may reap a more favorable reward. It reminds me of the song "Climb Every Mountain" a very beautiful and lyrical song.! ginga

    This empty nester’s mood is kind of unintended. I did not mean it while writing, but you discovered it.

    Sorry Ginga my response to you related to your comment about "Life", not "Mountain and Desert"

    That is really lovely! Wonderful writing!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
