Why This Hill For Us? Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Why This Hill For Us?

I pant a little going up
You too pant a little
Yet
Reaching the top
Looking below
At small hills.
Casitas, plains and
Mounds
And the rare oxygenated air
No nostril shall resist
No Sisyphus take
Of extended lungs
Of oxygenated blood
New
and
The joy of climbing
