Achieve The Summit
When you’re depressed look up
And see your destiny
And know you have energy enough
To achieve it successfully
Stick to the path you’re given
And stray not from its way
And keep to your decision
To proceed on snowy days
Be confident as you strive
That you will reach your goal
And you will feel alive
With the summit close
And when you’ve made it there
Take time to celebrate
At the top of the stairs
In the middle of the day
At the mountain peak
Know you must come down
And do so carefully
With the confidence you’ve found

Such sound advice in these well-written and interesting lines W.C. - - I love the metaphor of achieving the top of a mountain peak and finding more confidence.
Thank you for your comment, Fay. My inspiration for this poem was Mt. Denali in Alaska. I went there on my honeymoon many years ago. My wife and i named our son, Denali.
Very good write. In our life we climb the mountain of experience every day and every steep we climb makes us more assured in our wonderful lives.
Each journey begins with a single step. And after we've reached our destination, we see how far we've come.
A fine write w c. I hate using 'down' escalators, if I can see the floor(s) below. If I use the 'up' ones, I've got to get down again somehow - stairs or lift, or else I'm stranded! And then I may not use lifts alone. If I'm gonna get stuck, so are those in the lift with me. Doh! lol.
Thank you, orchidee. I haven't given much thought to escalators, other than i enjoy riding them. I've taken many steps, though, and have reached some wonderful places that i did not necessarily foresee. .. .
