Days of Sky and Snow

Hill walking
Below me, veiled in billowing white, the world and all its troubles lay, far, far away.
Hill walking
I will remember
Hill walking winter
For this day at least
Hill walking
I went upon my own two feet
Hill walking
To a different world
Hill walking
A place Extraordinary
