Take my hand, holding on tight. Why fear when I am there? Through blistering summer and blizzards of winter, feel my handclasp, don’t loosen your grip. Scale the heights along with me.... Don’t look back, climb on and on! July.29.2022 Short Verse Inspired by Pictures Poetry Contest Sponsor- Lisa YY No. of Words - 39
