A Mountain Top & You

This boy… ❤️
We were driving home and he asked what paradise was…
I started explaining what it was from my point of view and he stopped me to say this…

My heart completely overflowed!!! There’s no way in this world I even deserve such an honor, but I’m gonna tuck it away forever in my heart!!! ❤️

I love you, Leik! Forever and a day!

~ A Mountain Top & You ~

My little boy said “Mama, what does paradise mean?
“A little piece of paradise, is it something that I’ve seen?”
His young face was thoughtful, blue eyes lookin far
“Son, a piece of paradise starts with the song of a meadowlark”
I told him how it’s peaceful, ya feel free, your minds at ease
He stopped me there, took my hand then turned and said to me

“Mama, paradise to me is a mountain top so high
The wind blowing through the trees, a sunrise in the sky
Paradise feels warm to me, there’s peace and love, it’s true
Paradise feels just like that; a mountain top and you!”

My eyes filled with all the love, as his words echoed silently
My little boy thought paradise felt like his favorite spot and me
The peace and love, the wind and sun, the freedom in the trees
The wild of his mountain Meadow and the steadiness of me
“Yeah, mama, I’ve got a spot like that I go to in my mind
When life gets hard it’s a special place I can have at any time.
There I feel the sunshine, wind on my face from a sky so blue
There I feel safe and free just like I feel with you!”
