High Climb


High climb

Johnclarestokes 


But for a time

The path is strewn

With darkness and mist

But beyond the ridge

There lies the love

Upon the crest 

Never more to miss.


O’er East River


O’er the East River Mountain 

To the land beyond ole Cumberland 

The Pocahontas whistle sounds 

Come, come, to the eternal grounds. 


To the peak of East River Mountain

 Far Below Bluefield

The home place of my mother

The birth place of her son.
