In the mountains high and steep,
Where snow and ice converge and meet,
A world of wonder lies in wait,
But be careful, don't tempt fate.

Aspire to climb the tallest peak,
But know the dangers that you seek,
An avalanche may come your way,
And leave you disoriented to stray.

To fend against the cold and snow,
Wear proper gear, and you'll know,
That with each step you take and breathe,
You'll conquer mountains with ease.

Descend with caution and care,
And soon you'll find yourself down there,
Where the valleys are lush and green,
A paradise like you've never seen.

Compose a tune to sing aloud,
And let your voice ring clear and proud,
For you've achieved a great feat,
And now a new adventure you can meet.

So let your experiences accumulate,
And soon you'll be able to create,
A life full of wonder and joy,
As you climb higher, and higher, oh boy!

Reflections

1. What did the friends do that caused them to get lost in the woods?
2. How did the friends feel when they realized they were lost?
3. What were some of the survival skills the friends used to find their way back to civilization?
4. What might have happened if the friends didn't have any survival skills?
5. How did the experience of getting lost in the woods change the friends?
