A grand ol' tree climbing adventure! Huzah!
High Above the World
I search frantically
for a foothold,
somewhere to begin
before you get too high
for me to reach.
A knot in sight,
I pull up
with all my might,
praying the next branch
will hold me.
But with you there
by my side,
I feel no worry,
no pain,
only hope
for what's beyond
the next bough.
Our laughter
pulls us higher and higher
until, alas, there is no more tree
only triumphant sky,
the great sea above,
crying out for us
to swim in it's majesty.
We answer the call,
letting reality
yank us back down
before we lose ourselves
amid the clouds of wonder.
