Corcovado
<p>Winding our way up the steep mountain</p>
<p>My driver Roberto navigates the dangers with ease,</p>
<p>Arriving at the base, a mass of tourists awaits.</p>
<p>Roberto, my friend, escorts me to the front seat of a departing van</p>
<p>Like fish, tourists swim in the opposite direction as they make their descent,</p>
<p>Exhaling, I enter my IPod, open the window, smell the tropics</p>
<p>Still further we fly up the narrow winding road, destined.</p>
<p>I begin my preparation for the long-awaited ceremony</p>
<p>That for which I have come so far</p>
