The Top A Very Loney Place Poem by karen banks

The Top A Very Loney Place

Rating: 5.0


i was rushin to get there but what i didnt know
the top is a place where not to many people go
it is very loney but i am happy i made it
but dont get me wrong im not trying to degrade it
did all i had to do but success is my reward
but now that im here i am very bored
i see the people below me and wonder when will they get here
some are not moving and some are very near
a very loney place indeed but im not complaining
ima keep doing good and the top is where im staying
its hard to get up here and not alot of people make it
im a very lucky girl and im very proud to say it
the top is very loney but i dont mind
i foucse on my work so i dont get behind

yeah, that's very true, but that is the only reason why it's called the top (because not everyone can reach there) and the new thing i liked was the expression of being alone there, with a few compadres. it's a good feeling being at the top, but it has it's rules too. good poem.you've written it nicely

when you get to the top of one of life's mountains and you feel yourself alone and bored then the best advice I have ever heard is to look out at all the other mountains yet to be conquered. It'll keep you busy and certainly challenged for a very long time. Small critique: clean up the spelling....other than that it's a good write in a philosophical vein I found. Blessings and keep writing!

not to feel lonely upon reaching the top, one has to take people along the journey. when one wins the battle where every other is perished, is it a victory? give place to all urs n they're there to protect you from being lonely! i like ur spirit young lady!
