What is this poem?

[PenguinWings]

AIBU to think that I should be able to find this?

My Dad has died.

My Dad had a favourite book of poems. It was a small midcentury looking book of poems about mountains, with a linocut ish picture of mountains on the front and I think a red spine.

There was a short poem about missing the mountains and it has a line something like "are you going to the mountains? Take me with you".

He wanted it read at his funeral but we can't find the book.

I've tried googling it but there are so many mountain poems and also I get pages about '"are you going to the mountains? Make sure that you check the weather forecast and have appropriate equipment".

Can anyone help me to find this poem please?

Thank you

Might it be Pablo Neruda? I don't remember or recognise the poem, but he wrote lots that mentioned mountains.

And if you don't find the answer here, it might be worth making a reddit account. They're good for slightly obscure questions.

And of course I should have said how sorry I am about your dad. It's so painful losing a parent. I hope you find the poem.

That's really helpful thank you

Elizabeth Squires Take Me to the Mountain?

Was it this book?

I'm sorry for your loss OP

I found this? I really hope someone can find it for you.

Could it be the line 'the mountains are calling and I must go?' It's a John Muir quote but there's a poem on google by Edward A Morris.

So sorry to hear about your dad. X

So sorry for your loss OP.

Was the book anything like either of these?

So sorry for your loss OP.

It's not any of the poems on this page is it? I can't find an exact match but most of them are quite short.

Possibly Guy Kirkus?

If there are no mountains in heaven...

There are some great suggestions here, thank you. Maskingforit your suggestion made me laugh out loud.
