She had journeyed far from the valley below

Through many trials compelled to undergo

Ascent the hardest choice and yet no choice

Listening as she had to her own inner voice

Her focus, her life spent climbing upwards

Often two steps forward, one backwards

Determinedly she continued her endless quest

Grateful to know the mountain, deeply blessed

Looking back she sees obstacles now long gone

She knew they would pass if she only pushed on

Trials and tribulations tested if she is faint hearted

Immeasurable distance from where she started

Her ascent to the summit, her own path taken

One dimensional existence long since forsaken

And yet the path now also seems to be gone

She pondered with an open mind thereupon

Panic and worry having long since been banished

Looking back every obstacle has now also vanished

Considering her journey in her own minds eye

Dawning realisation hit her, now she could FLY!
