I stood and saw a mountain
It loomed ahead so tall
Blocking the way, or so it seemed
Just like a huge brick wall
It soared right up into the clouds
So steep; so very high
A massive mountain in the mist
That stood against the sky
Ahead a single track of sorts
Uneven and quite rough
Covered in rocks and scree and stones
That said ‘Give Up – it’s tough’
Yet somewhere in the distance
A small ray of light shone through
That lured me to just carry on
To head towards the blue
So small it seemed insignificant
Yet with magnetic might
It pulled me; drew me onwards til
The end came into sight
A magnet that we might call ‘will’
The will to win; succeed
That failed to let me quit or stop
As will became a need
And need became persistence
Determined to achieve
To battle on and reach the top
Inspired to just believe
Believe that any mountain that
We face will fade away
When mind and body join as one
To win through day on day
