Climb Your Mountain

To My Sweet Wife!! 

The journey ahead would be surreal

It had been planned for many years.

I’m sure my joy was premature

This journey would cause many tears.


Thus began our steady ascent

The sky was clear without a cloud.

Excitement filled our happy hearts

Being here we felt so proud.


Hours turned into many days

The joy of climbing turned to pain.

Aches and pains were constant friends

Patience was taught again and again.


Some paths we took led us awry

Life was learned as pain set in.

Second guessing our resolve

It seemed that we would never win.


Clouds and rain impaired our sight

The path became a daunting slope.

Undeterred by raging storms

All pressed on with shining hope


With our hearts securely set

On reaching our eternal goal.

Each step would take us closer still

Inch by inch we would be whole.


This journey’s not for faithless folk

You will be tested that is sure.

Once this journey is complete

You’ll find your heart clean and pure.


Gazing at your new found view

All pain is gone and you are new.

I would do it all again

To have a gift so pure and true.
