Seoraksan

Not the highest on the planet
But the highest I had ever seen
Not the prettiest in Korea
But the prettiest place I have ever been

Visability poor
at mountain top
Made you almost drop
your phone over the edge
four out of ten for visibility

Visibility poor
surrounded in mist
your slender figure
tentatively stepping
following my steps
I couldn't see very far,
But I could always see you
It was all I needed
Ten out of ten for Visability of you

Makgeolli with lunch at
base of mountain
Your laugh
Our conversation
Ten out of ten
