Top of the World

I stood atop a mountain

and surveyed the world around

I hope I can describe

the beauty that I found.

The splendor of the vista

in all directions grew

until it seemed creation

itself was in my view.

The grandeur of it all

took my breath away

and caused me to desire

that I forever stay.

The glory of this view

from oh-so high above,

became the world to me

on the mountain known as love.
