he takes you firmly by the hand and you begin
an arduous climb up the mountain
he is wearing explorer’s clothes
rough and ready
along the way he shouts encouragement
----------and you begin to notice little things
tiny blue flowers at your feet
a bird singing spring
breeze in your hair
beating of your heart
at the top he shows you
----------world at your feet
and you realize all that is possible
but it is in the
striving
that flowers bloom
