AIM HIGH

Michael Edwards

 

 

AIM HIGH

 

I’ve always aimed for the top of the tree

For that’s the only place for me

Since, when all is done and said,

I don’t want the tree on top of my head.

    Ha - Agreed that is the place to be - - and wishing you ever to be on top in the clear air - -- thanks for the first smile of my day again Mike -and for another breathtaking view of your talented artwork.

    I though this was going to be a peeing contest when i read the title.

    I found a place of comfort far from such dizzy heights accepting them as unattainable in light of the unprincipled enthusiasm of others.

      It could well be a contest - if you're at the top of the tree you've got a great advantage.

      that cynic within
      is usually more concerned
      with those tremors of life
      that come long, dumping
      me from wherever
      I happen to be perched...
      a good read Michael

      And where do you think I am going on that picture of mine? Also, the view is much better from the top.
      Love that poem!
