Evaluating  the events

That the day has brung.

Another ladder to be climbed,

None with a missing rung.

 

Then midway to the top,

I looked back and saw the crowd.

Why were they looking up

And some voices I could hear outloud?

 

Come back, the wall will collapse,

Is one voice I heard cry.

Sensing no danger, I climbed on.

Near the top, I understood why.
