Best Climber Poems

So you call yourself a rhymer,
you’re nothing but a social climber. 
I got better rhymes than you in my sleep.
If you come my way accept your defeat.
I will challenge any male or female.
You're wearing the title belt now,
but look at your opponents. 
Step up to...

life is a ladder
and i am a social
climber
climbing one step
after another
but life is hard
so i have to move
faster
if i want to get
further
for the rich is
getting richer
and the poor get
poorer
even though life is
tough
and things get rough
i believe i will
make it
life will get better
for i come from
somewhere

He climbs up rhythmically 
keeping his legs
within a ring of rope 
like his life.

Intuition assures
the ripeness; 
life-nut falls down  
from the tree top.

Just a slip
will end in all end, 
but practice
rarely slips.

Though the ways are hackneyed, 
he’s honeyed and free
under his calluses.

Morrows and yesterdays,
he...

"There is no safety this side of Death",
admonished Father Jubal.
There's a chance we've only one more breath;
I'd bet my bottom Ruble!
My iron tongue- my lying lung!
One last dirge to be sung...
But from the depths of Hell, from Heaven fell-
I have climbed up wrung for wrung!...

Space Rock Climber was born to the void
On an asteroid named for its ores and metals
Orbiting the sun one year after another
Morning never comes
Day never breaks
Silence goes on forever dead

A 10 year old son abandoned by parents
Who moved back to their home planet, Earth
The boy...

Climber
         by Odin Roark

Reality readied its chance
 
Ascent of an alpine face
Traversing ice and cold
Challenging steel axe and rope 
Such was the pulsating vibration 
Facing another dawn

That day
Blade and ice danced slow motion
Penetrating deep into resistance
Echoing through...

HIGH CLIMBER

Above my sturdy maple –
By nature tree related –
A frisky, leaping fellow
Is lord of closed earth below

Wonder of agility
This sprite for all seasons
Knows not the gifts he’s bestowed
To what evolution owed

But goes daily surveying
Each frozen plot, fence, house top –
Careful descent, twist, turn -
Survival...

the mountain is high
it's filled with stones,
the rocky slope
is prone to storms...

the peak is high
but you need to climb,
hurdles are many
but you can pass them and smile..

the icy cold wind
may chill your spine,
you may feel lonely
in the tall forest of pines...

but the peak is near,
you...

I love to climb up to the tippy-top of rainbows
 
pulling myself up on ruby red ribbons
 
and swinging on blue bonnet bows
 
It can be hard on me when the wild wind blows
 
A beautifully dangerous love affair, I suppose
 
Sometimes it can be...

There was this bold man, an expert climber, 
followed own technique of an old timer.
It was always his call, 
wife wasn’t happy at all, 
for he never cared to even time her. 

He once decided to go off the track, 
flexing his fat body on...

Ivy is a climber
She climbs up on ladders and chairs
Creeps into an empty house
And climbs its creaky stairs

She just loves climbing
And never falls
The best thing she loves to climb
Is up all garden walls...

There was this man, an expert climber
Followed own technique of old timer
It was always his call
Wife wasn’t happy at all
For he would never care to time her.

He decided to go off the track
Flexing his body on vale and crack
Pleased with the thrilling ride 
Wife lost...

Happy birthday, dear Rochelle Ann, 
A climber reaches the summit; 
That man makes it there in less than 
Fourteen hours and a minute.

Atop Ole Everest 
mountaineers delight
Your souls she can take
In darkness of night 

Her vengeance and beauty
Are one in the same
With wildness in her
She’ll never be tame

Almost to summit
So close to her peak 
Climbing on north side
Your soul she seek

Her fury has gripped you
You know you...
