Call
You have been under this tree
long enough;
Secure in its shade,
Whilst the clouds beyond
the mountains call.
Now get up,
Shake off ease and
let go of comfort;
Take the risk and begin
to walk.
Can you live under the shade
of a tree on the plain;
You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.
When your heart stirs at the
Clouds beyond the Mountains Call?
Breadth
How many times have we
stopped and given up?
Yet only later saw how close
we were to the end?
Most books I have a pause
Then, when I reach the end, I think:
“I was only a hair's breadth away.”
Fluff
Insulation for a
being-deconstructed
building,
Or lining for a
Crow’s nest:
Fluff.
