The Climb

This climb, unlike that climb, is the climb
that leads to becoming prostrate.
This climb does takes to places but
doesn't make one conventionally great.

One climb, many places,
Cities, Continents, Inter-space, even.
Sometimes you decide the destination,
at others you don't even know you're leaving!

This climb requires no special gear,
No plan, no speculation, no flight or train.
Photography strictly 'not allowed',
Memrories may or may not remain.

This is the climb below covers,
among pillows and between sheets.
This is the climb that makes you forget what's what,
and leads to a victorious retreat.

Oh when the head touches the pillow!
And the blanket comes around.
World seems better, stars shines brighter,
The word 'happiness' is defined.
