The Garden Wall
Climbing up the garden wall,
the questions loom
-the answers small
Climbing up the garden wall,
the past retreats
-the future falls
Climbing up the garden wall,
a distant voice
-your name beyond
Climbing up the garden wall,
a minstrel plays
-forgotten songs
Climbing up the garden wall,
Lot's wife is dead
-not looking back
Climbing up the garden wall,
the top in sight
-the beanstalk jacked
Climbing up the garden wall,
I reach across
-all fear behind
Climbing up the garden wall,
horizons new
-the choices mine
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
the questions loom
-the answers small
Climbing up the garden wall,
the past retreats
-the future falls
Climbing up the garden wall,
a distant voice
-your name beyond
Climbing up the garden wall,
a minstrel plays
-forgotten songs
Climbing up the garden wall,
Lot's wife is dead
-not looking back
Climbing up the garden wall,
the top in sight
-the beanstalk jacked
Climbing up the garden wall,
I reach across
-all fear behind
Climbing up the garden wall,
horizons new
-the choices mine
