In response to this photo prompt at Sue Vincent’s Daily Echo:

Here is my contribution:

Insignificance
this human life –
atop a mountain
heralding victory
then the looming chill of
the shadow of the next,
but look to the sun
though casting shadows
its rays of warmth
always following;
The indomitable
human spirit –
at day’s end
wind swept and drenched,
rises to greet
a new dawn.
