The Other Side Of The Mountain ~*Marge Tindal*~ The other side of the mountain seemed firmly out of my reach Yet climbing with anticipation I sought to scale her peaks I felt it might be impossible to set foot on the other side Clearly an effort so difficult from me it seemed to hide One step at a time I endured ever-mindful of the task The sunny side of the mountain was to be mine at last Oh, the beauty that filled me when standing on her side Not realizing I was looking at the side I had just climbed ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Loved this m.o.m.s.!!! and ya did it again...I was just thinking about a quote I read earlier---"some people spend a lifetime trying to move the mountain they should be climbing!" You are amazing! |

Joyce~ Half the joy in life is found in looking back to where we've been - The other half is gonna end up behind us too ! Great view, huh ?
