Be A Mountain

By Aidan Romo

Horses may gallop with such grace and speed,

Yet they rarely go as fast as they can.

Lions may be monarchs among wildlife,

Yet the heights of the globe they do not know.

Canyons may be gigantic and stunning,

Yet their steepness keeps them far from the sun.

Trees might be lofty structures of the world,

Yet their peaks can be even taller still.

Birds can fly up, touch the sky with their beaks,

Yet often they stay closer to the soil.

Stars may lie up in the vast heights of space,

Yet few can truly admire their shine.

Be seen and take your place among the clouds.

Nothing less than your best, be a mountain.
