My Mountain
by
Riana N.
One more step, one more breath
until I reach the top
Don't look down, oh never look down
so excited I could pop!
Above the cities, away from the crowd
I think I've gone to heaven
But no, I'm still on earth-
Mom said I have to be home by seven.
But for a while I feel like I
Am under a perfect dome
It's blue- just like the sky
I'm nowhere close to home.
I breathe in the crisp, cool air
Upon my magical hill
I lay under my favorite tree
And listen to the blue bird's trill.
It must surely be the only place
that I can speak my mind
Because it is the best mountain
that I will ever find.
