Unclimbed Mountains

My view of the Huachuca Mountains

Unclimbed mountains beckon me,

  to a place I once roamed free.

Miller Peak and the Carr Falls,

  the echo off the canyon walls.

Trapsing through an Aspen grove,

  such a place for me to rove.

Red-tailed Hawk on lifted wings,

  listen as the wild bird sings.

Pure spring water from a spout,

  such a pleasure on my route.

Clear blue sky and mountain air,

  gorgeous vistas everywhere.

The Coati Mundi in a tree,

  a fallen log for his pantry.

The distant thunder of a storm,

  enough to make the soul transform.

Unclimbed mountains beckon me,

  yonder where I long to be.
