Taking in the view

#FFFC

The walk up the mountain path was a long one

with snaking twists and turns

past mountain bogs and pot holes

and occasional dead ends

They’d gone up the mountain for a challenge

and to see what was at the top

but stopped at a meeting point half way up

eating so they wouldn’t drop

The climb up the path it was steady

and some gambolled up hill without care

while some took their time up the pathway

just taking in the fresh mountain air

Reward was a sight at the mount-top

and sights of the waters clear blue

as well as something warm for their insides

a cup of hotpot or stew
