Of hikes and spikes

Mountains and trees defined levels for us. Measurements have to start from where we are, and go up or down.

What is the concept of height for a Mount Everest champion? They look below and celebrate. But do they nurse any ambition of touching the Moon?

We look below us and name the seasons – depending on being approached by trees and flowers or deserted. Taking a hike is conquest, and we love the feeling.

what is spring

but nature taking

sudden spikes
