Motivation

She climbed and climbed to reach her goal
Never worrying about impending fall
She had to reach it, for it was told
The food of life, for her, did call

Outstretching arm, she ventured on
Not giving up, she had to gain
While all the time, she whistled songs
Each one of them had sounded the same

Ah, upon achieving, she raised her hand
Proceeded to gaze upon her glory
Reaching inside of the ceramic man
She took her cookie, that’s the story.
