Mt Problems

You are getting higher and higher;
in fact, higher than Mt. Everest!
Almost everyday new problems
belch out from the vents that are quite
difficult to predict their appearance.
The problems at your peak are cooler
than the North Pole.
Sometimes I dream finding myself
at the top of your peak,
gazing at the stars and moonlight.
One day,
I will rise with such zeal and persistence,
that I will reach your peaks,
and claim your ownership;
you won't be so high for me anymore!

Yes, Arthur. We'll climb right to their peaks! :) We're not mountaineers by default but by design! Thank you for reading and enjoying my work! :)
