Write a haiku inspired by a mountain.

In order to qualify as a haiku, it must meet the following requirements:

There must be 3 lines.

There must be 17 syllables.

The first line should be 5 syllables, the second line should be 7 syllables, and the third line should be 5 syllables.

So voila voila :

Majestic mountain

Towering over all below

Awe-inspiring sight

Snow-capped mountain peaks

Soaring high into the clouds

Unreachable heights

Gentle rolling hills

Or towering mountains high

Which will you explore?

The mountain stands tall

A symbol of strength and power

Unmovable and firm

Standing at the summit

Looking out at the world below

Feeling so small now

From the valley below

The mountain seems so unattainable

But I'll keep climbing

Breathtaking view from here

The world looks so different from up high

I feel so alive

One step at a time

I slowly make my way up the trail

To the top of the world

The mountain is calling

And I must go and explore

To see what I can find
