Premium MemberWhich Hill Will You Climb

If your choice is to climb the higher hill
You’ll need more supplies and a stronger will
For as you climb supplies will diminish
And some will be needed when you finish

If you’re looking for fun and a small thrill
You’ll find it better to choose a small hill
Choose one you can top in just a short span
With several

BE TOLD, STAY BOLD AND TAKE HOLD

Be Told
What worth a thousand 
Can't be attained with hundreds 
To know the degree 
You must measure 
To get to the top of a tree 
You have to climb it.

Stay bold 
If you're working on it
It will surely work out
When you give it your all
There must be an outcome
Even if not immediately but it's certain.

Take

The Decent

Deep in melancholy fields I sit.
Heavy with the thought, I'm pinned in place
The past, present, future wrestle in silence

A hill of happiness rises in the distance—out of reach, yet inviting
I notice that both sides are longer than the apogee
My legs tremble, not from the height but from fear
Fear of short-lived joy

Each step echoes in the

The beginning or The end?


The wind stood still, the stars held breath,
Two voices rose in life and death.
One whispered start, one thundered close,
Each pulled the soul where no one knows.

Beginning sang with morning light:
"Come rise with me, embrace the fight.
Your dreams are seeds; they’ve just been sown—
Why fear the path you’ve never known?"

End replied in velvet tone:
"But peace is

The Climb

Dirty and cheap at the same time. 
Like mountains you can die climbing. 
Got dirty (didn’t pay much) and still died. 
So the mountain outnumbers us. 

Someone like me who is cheap. 
And likes to cheap out. 
Does not possess much. 
Except the weird map. 

If I get up there. 
Like a podium, but it’s

Premium MemberOut On A Limb

A tall tree I did climb,
on a bet of a dime.
Baby Bear said it was funny,
it was not for the big money.
The limb broke what a crime.

I'll climb
the tallest mountains with no stress,
I just need~
a helmet, rope, and other climbing gear,
warm layers, good boots, maybe some fear,
a bit of my heart in my mouth,
to chase the butterflies from my belly—
no need to fight against my shadow~
it'll be

The Option

When life brings us what it brings us

We must never ignore the option of UP

Look up

Get up

Stand up

Sit up

Climb up

Lift up

Firm up

Rise up

Step up

Rouse up

Stir up

Move up

Scale up

Gather up

Regardless of what life brings us

Recovery follows when we explore the option of UP

The Climb

When you reach
the top of the mountain
remember it is not about the mountain

It is about the legs that did not fail you

It is about the sun that lit your way

It is about the wind that served your momentum

It is about the focus that empowered your stay

It is about the lesson that cleared your vision

It is

But why did my mother faint?

Mangoes, golden and full, their scent~
a whispered promise of mischief.
My fingers sticky, my heart pounding.
My mother’s eyes—wide, unblinking.

“Where did you get these?”
Her voice, a blade slicing the air.
A hush fell around us,
the mangoes cradled in guilt.

“Mum, I plucked them from a mango tree.”
Silence—a breath held underwater.
Five minutes, five hours,
eternity suspended on her brows.

“Were you alone?”
The

The Wall

I look down from atop the wall—I am overwhelmed
fear paralyzes me—the challenge is too much
but I cannot stay here—life moves along
go says the voice in my head—my hands will not obey

Premium MemberThe Snowy Climb

I remember her quite clearly
As if only yesterday,
In my mind I loved her dearly
But she was miles and miles away.

Up there above the tree line
Where only pure beauty can go, 
And no one like me could ever be 
Beside her in the snow.  

Where she walked with grace upon her face 
As if smitten

The Vision Beyond the Climb

Finish first, but leave your teammates in distress.
We all rise the same, one foot at a time,
Shaking off the morning’s disheveled grime.

Groggy, moody, still weary from sleep
Last night felt like a flash, fleeting, yet deep.
But here we are, ready to begin,
Stepping into the world we know, braving the din.

Some have coffee, some sip their tea,
Others
