The Secret Staircase

The Secret Staircase Someone once told me of a secret staircase. We are taught to ascend, from the moment of birth. Readily we choose, all others to forget, desperately clinging, to whatever living we can get. Zero to infinity, is where we all go. Some with more worries, to daily forego. Those stairs are paved, with golden threads, things and opportunity, collected instead. Live this life well. Respect all who care. Love until it is too much, for your heart to bear. Today, tomorrow, whenever the time comes, make sure your life, is beautifully presented, and moreover well done. Copyright Elle Smith 2017
