Higher Than the Alps Mountains

Army of Napoleon Bonaparte, Was so rhythmically marching, Gliding across all rough paths Like condors to conquer the Alps; A woman aged in experience, Warns him consequences dire; For never ever in her lifetime, Had she seen anyone coming back; He, overwhelmed by love for her, Gifts her diamonds vastly valued; Tells her to spread the great story Of Napoleon daring to come back; The army in reluctance rebels, To move ahead to such hazard; Telling them it’s a matter trivial, He enkindles their spirits to soar; Indeed, they had seen a hill, And enquired their master about it; ‘Alps Mountain is great’, he said, Lo, this resembles nothing of it; They climbed it so simple and easy, And expected another expedition tough; Reaching the plains he smilingly said, The Alps has already been conquered; Relentless was Napoleon’s ways, Victory-oriented his daring deeds; His faith mingled with intelligence, Charisma combined with confidence; Motivation merged with military trust, Handled rarest of rare predicaments… 01 July 2021

Very nice take on Napoleon’s “ascent” I was surprised when reading The Rose of Martinique,” that Josephine treated Napoleon like she was treated by her first husband, not well at times. It was a great read.
