Eleventh eleventh, the day it happened
Remember that November Ramses climbed the avalanche
To celebrate my saying yes to his request
His undoing was not putting on his helmet
Skiing so hard on the ice
Basking in the mountain, cold and nice
Till a sledge fell off his leg
Down he rolled, till we can't see his head.
...
...
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Gathered here are family and friends
All looking sad, mood is bent
To mourn the end of a trend
Just as the city mayor has said
Enough of our children climbing death's stairs
High above the mountain, to its end
All for facebook likes and comments
For this Jessy, Kessy, and his friend
Died on the icy mountain without a sledge.
...
...
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Happy as always, hubby's choice is here
Cold, teeth gnashing, frost bite incoming
Top on the mountain, devil daring feet
His perfect pick of wedding
Smoothly it went without any evil
Left, all came and gone intact
Though we've heard goosebumps stories
Of how the mountainhas horrible memories
...
...
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Told of his miraculous act
For this thing we went in search
Called the antidote of life
To some, it's the eternal elixir
While the map points northern
All we could see was ice
Ice, ice and ice, mountain and ice.
...
...

The above is an entry into @xpilar Picture

Now that is interesting. I see four stories here, Maybe three and one funeral, three different climbs for three different reasons, although I do not know what bride would find getting married on top of one of those peaks her ideal wedding day, especially given the mountain's reputation for memories.

You're right, each verse is a different story.
