The Climb

Sometimes going backward means going forward

The Climb

Feet among the branches,
Silence in tow
Mind headed for heavens
Limbs & leaves mingle above the norms of old
Catch the wave of soundlessness
Return to days of old where little minds
grow in the imagination of the soul.

'The Climb'
Alfred Kukitz,
This is a lovely writing of appreciation of the wonder of childhood.
A tree of ones own is a delight to a child.
It is spacious and a place to dream. Nice words you've shared.
Here's a few;
"Mind headed for heavens
Limbs &leaves mingle above the norms of old
Catch the waves of soundlessness"
I liked the whole piece very much.
Blessings,
Kathy

Been somewhat dry until the climb came along. I think it’s my backyard woods I miss.

This poem reminds me of climbing the maple trees with my friends, always challenging each other to go higher. I think adults should do it more often, if only to remind themselves it’s good to do small things. Thanks for sharing this one.

i want that soul back...please.
