A Twilight’s Mission, Once Again
There she stands
Once again before us
Her velvet slopes
Glowing golden in the twilight.
Rapt allure
Once again before us
It’s in our hearts
To revel at her summit.
City lights
Once again beneath us
We’ve conquered her
And it is we who glow golden.
Rapture stirs
Once again inside us
We choose to go
Where we know we can go, always.
We don’t move the mountain
But once again
The mountain surely moves us.
