The Ladder to Obsess

Well..he would practice his trade,
Just like he practiced his life.
Practical! With cold precision,
Never made time for a wife.

He woke precisely at six,
He wore the same suit and tie.
But, mumbled under his breath,
When any neighbors passed by!

He was of the opinion,
That "He" was better than 'Them!"
With his fine, manicured nails,
And a fresh shave and a trim.

A Nautical Truth - Water Is Magnetic

This is for all those of an ocean-going mind who, for no apparent reason, are compelled down to the seas again.

Throughout history, water, in all its forms, has held an attraction to humanity. Whether it be wading 'neath a waterfall, paddling in the pool, walking by the weir, crossing a canal, riparian tendencies, such as

Ladder Sways in So Many Ways

I linger, to pause for a while,
between the ladder rungs of what's been done below,
and what is yet to become above.
Below me stretches a dizzying array of tiers.
Each step is a relic of a decision,
I've made to take the next rung up or down—
Some firm, some sure, some splintered, and weathered.
Each step was risky, presuming

A Walk Under A Ladder

Roll back the tides of time, and tell,
Of ancient books of myths, of hell,
Of temperance, nuns succumbed to gloom,
Entombed within their living tombs,
Of monks, and saints, and gospel song,
Born gently by the breeze, along,
Of deep toned organs' peeling swells,
Of virgins, Mary, and funeral knells,
Of dim-lit cells and penance loaned,
Which can for one's darkest deeds, atone,
Look

UP THE LADDER

Not a Ladder step up
Typewriting keyboard set up
Hands on the keys
Typing letter after letter
Accuracy that matters
Speed will come
Practice makes perfect
Afterwhile, you will become a typing dynamo
You will be your own quick moving typing gizmo
Pace yourself
Be calm and patient
Don’t let anxiety get to you
In due time
Typist will be in you.

WORD LADDER

I like to solve word ladders…as a puzzle I think they’re great!
Did you know Lewis Carroll invented word ladders back in 1878?

Yes, the same Lewis Carroll who in 1865 I understand…
wrote a story about Alice…who followed a rabbit running late
into a wonderland.

In a word ladder you start with a word…
The object is for that word

THE LADDER OF IMAGINATION

People love the rolling ladder in our store.
We use it to shelve some of our rarer sets of books.
Many people who enter tell us how great that ladder looks.

But to me that ladder is much more than a 10,000 year old innovation.
It is a symbol…a gesture…a stairway to ones imagination.

Our store is filled with people

Climbing The Ladder Of Enlightenment

Climbing The Ladder Of Enlightenment

All the realizations of yesterday is how we live today
Of all the lesson presented through time can we achieve and make our way
If but a small slip a lesson is missed another attempt shall come back our way 
Through God's gracious gifts his love shall bring bliss as we climb the

The Ladder

Yes
It's rungs
May be covered in rust
But commit to the climb
To learn how to trust

Yes
You'll fall
Again and again
Caught by the arms
Of a very old friend

Yes
You'll be put
Back at the start
A journey to the place
Where you're never apart

Yes
Your hands
Will be battered and bruised
Take solace in a fate
You surely didn't choose

Yes
This climb
Has no real end
But neither does the

Ladder

When you finally finish climbing,
Out of the darkest pits,
You reach the light, shining,
You're happy and everything fits.
Then you feel those hands,
Grasping, pulling, clawing at your back,
You're drug back down in the sands,
Hope, future, Life, fades back to black.

The Ladder of Hope

I am burning in the sweltering heat
And it is just over a hundred degree
The sun is burning in my head
And a terrible pain is writhing in my neck
And water is springing up in my face
But I am holding on to my grace
I was wondering how to ease this discomfort
When all that I could see was

The Bloody Ladder

He was a success and on top of the world,
But his triumph came at a great price,
Had stepped on too many lives,
Up the ladder to the top.
He sat behind a big mahogany desk,
And soon knew he was over his head,
Was not prepared for the task,
For someone at the top.
Tried to hide the big mistake by

Divine Frequency Ascension

396,   417,   528

Climbing the celestial staircase 
To that sweet heavenly space

639 love, love divine. A pause at the crossroads, the beautiful heart at the center of it all
Connecting vibrant, verdant earth as Jacob continues his upward crawl

741,   852,   963

Removing obstacles for an even higher ascent 
Steadfastly moving

i do not climb the ladder

the ladder is metallic 
a shiny gun metal blue
light weight and telescopic

14ft tall or nearest the sod
as high or as low as i like it
i will displace myself upon it

i can lean it where and when 
i need it, it's light and portable
ascending or descending on its antislip pedals 

i do not climb the ladder
