The Climb

Posted to Poetry




Pushing through one level
And going to the next
Looking down on what was once perceived
AS BEING VERY VERY BIG
It now all seems so small
Though there are bigger things above
And sometimes the threatening glow
Of the specters up ahead
Forewarn us of times to stay back
If you want to go ahead
There are jewels lying ahead
But keep in mind at all times
They are heavily guarded.
