Rosie Clare had some poems that I put music to.
Lyrics
I wonder up the mountain
To be where only birds can fly
I want to see my world
From the mighty eagles eye
I hear my heart, it’s pounding
As I reach a new found high
My breath it breaks the silence
Open valleys by and by.
I’ve come to talk to Mother Earth
She’ll tell me what to do
She reaches in and grabs my soul
Leaving love, while a soft wind blew
I wonder up the mountain
To be where only birds can fly
I want to see my world
From the mighty eagles eye
It’s here I find the answers
Among the fresh clean snow
The Mountain keeps me grounded
From the chaos far below
With beauty in my heart again
I start the trek back down
I follow streams all cold and clear
And hear it’s babbling sound
The mountain is my refuge
The mountain sets me free
The mountain gives me life again
The mountain helps me see

At some point we all need to walk up the mountain….
