Poem I wrote

BIG ROCK CAN BE MOUNTAIN

.

.


We can't get proper perspective


From the bottom of our mountain


The foothills of formal education


Are only a little better


No, we must climb that rocky, steep slope


Resting here and there along the way


To catch our breath, refresh our spirits


Reassess our strategies


We can't stay on a flinty ledge for too long


Rockbound, petrified with apprehension


No, we must continue our climb, however arduous


However dizzying, to the tippy top


There we will survey the lay of the land


Gather perspective, devise strategies


Then, when we make our descent, 


Filled with the glow of accomplishment


We will know almost everything we need to know


To rule our kingdoms wisely
