Analysis of Climb Mountains
How many twice 43-year olds do you know,
Still dreamers, schemers and believers?
Who built our world, lauded mankind
Calmed the excesses of the younger generation
Found treasures in nature’s beauty
Fascinated by inventions, new reasoning
And modern methods
Still optimistic that peace is around the corner
A brittle, dwindling people
Full of hormones and physical conquests
Energetic, alive, vibrant
Ready to mesmerize and romance the ladies
Ready to climb mountains
Maybe only one at a time
Slow, deliberate
Wonderful, happy in spite of tragedy about
Waiting for the wonder of tomorrow
