Deep-seated passion blowing all through the night
Mother Nature calling yon early twilight
Come cornice come fissure come crystalline height
Come jumping come diving come long airy flight
Come carving come gliding come slippery night
Come stream come chasm come paddlers plight
Come surfing come hanging come watery sight
On soaring on flying on high mountain light
Climb high grasp hold exposing our right
Giving it all our own glory and might
Faster we go close to the edge safely perhaps possibly so
Within her folds her crease such sweet dispense
Caress every turn every grasp every hold
Living achievements to chasing such glow
Nourished of steam exertion and flow
A leap of faith most notably so
Every task non-less to behold
Wispy white trails sprinkle distant dispose
Slight of right to such dark rushing prose
Blow soft blow hard I’m so indisposed
Falling to forces beyond any repose
To hardship and adventure and undisguised relight
To nature and spaces and oneness in life
To those chasing dreams
To adventurous delight
Cheers to all and to all a safe flight
