The Offer

You offered me anywhere.

Earth for a day. 

A meadow in India. The mountains of my dreams. 

A long sharp pinnacle of ice, a ribbon of cloud.

 And lurking within lies golden grass, silent but the rumble bleats of transcendent bodies.

Everything I love I've been fortunate to glimpse it from afar.

I've seen it daily[,] hung in a frame on a wall. Chances are I'll never reach it.

My interest in mountains began with stories of [hero's, of you. 

So, no I don't take your offer.]
