OLD MAN ON THE MOUNTAIN


This mountain path is arduous


The climb is hard and steep!


A thousand times before


I  have tread this way!


But then!


I was younger !


Not hidden by my younger mans clothes 


My beard is grey!


I'm breathless as I climb!


My knees creak as I descend


My heart keeps racing without exertion


As I linger on , with sweat in my brow


 Still Enjoying the beauty around me


My aging mind wonders


Will I ever come back here again!
