Are you a mouse or a mountain ?

 

Contest by Matt Caliri

Mouse or Mountain

   In childhood me a tiny timid mouse,
   paying unimportant role  at house.
    Day by day personality arouse.

     Dreamed to grow up as mountain.
     Circumstances didn’t entertain
     Yet dormant desires sustained.
 
     Confronted and never gave up !
     Always tried to rise above,
     to access success as deserved.

      Struggled with several conflicts.,
      being rustic or sophistic 
      as needed on principle strict.

      Tried and tried as I met failure.
       Met challenges, not to endure.
       Sporty spirit : Soul pristine pure.

       Always worked hard in broad spectrum.
       Seeking satisfaction and charm,
       since mountain turned stable and firm.
