The mountains n'er seemed so tall... <br />As in this most laborous climb divine--- <br />'Twas as if we were reaching for the pinnacle of Paradise... <br />Thus, claiming these towering peaks as mine; <br /> <br />Surely Heaven 'tis this blissful... <br />Where the joy surpasses any sort of pain--- <br />Where sorrow 'tis a long forgotten emotion--- <br />Wrapped in comforters of Loves sweet refrain; <br /> <br />Higher, ever higher we do ascend... <br />To touch the Peaks of Evermore... <br />Once just two lonely people in search of happiness--- <br />Now, as one, together walking through Heavens door; <br /> <br />Joy and freedom have adorned us-beloved... <br />Upon these streets all paved in Gold-- <br />Forever, atop, the world together... <br />With Eternal life-never ever to grow old; <br /> <br />The Essence <br />August,2010<br /><br />Theodora (Theo) Onken<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/climb-3/
