Pinnacle

Pinnacle Climbing slowly Up the mountain And relishing each step, As success glorifies And vibes of joy strike, Through sunny prickle And soothing moonlight, Stopping midway As touches the breeze You heave a sigh, One glance upward Sparkle of content, Bravo more you go, Crest to culminate Just one look down From where you came, And feel the beauty The power up there Another war conquered, It's so light here! Who ever has seen The lava boil inside, Volcanoes beneath Ready to erupt, pinnacle you reached Turns to history Another fine day! Written September 29th, 2014 For contest 'Pinnacle' by Anthony Slausen Awarded HM
