Almost Touching The Sky
Our route takes us on through 
so many empty valleys
Where sightless indifferent mountains 
Brood Above our heads, 
Glimpsed through the trees 
As we climb higher, 
The sea flickers blue
Between the trees, 
Stretching silent out
To where it meets the dawn 
Rising out of the distant horizon. 
We will meet the risen sun up high
On the cliff-top, in the open 
Near the clouds, where the sun feels 
Almost close enough to touch
And the endless sky 
Seems within easy reach
Of our hands reaching out.
