Climb
by Felina Lune Kavi

(2004)

Intuition chimes in...time to climb again.

No sense sitting in the mud

waiting for another thrill
,
waiting for a wonder pill

to pick us up and high above

the sometimes rough landings...the harshness of hard ground.

There are other choices

than slipping up the slide.

Remember the ladder

on the other side...

(2010)

Climb the zenith, climb…the path is overhead.
The nadir foundations of Earth,
upon which we build
and display our skill,
are the security of family…the encouragement to grow.
There are better choices
to make within our lives.
To know ourselves
we simply have to climb.
