This one has been kicking around for awhile... what think you?

Question

Summits

Once I pondered love

at the summit of desire

Fear stayed my hand.

I did not enter and thinking I had lost my chance

Left the place in torment.

Today I find that time waits for me..

I shall ponder love at the same gate

And will not hesitate but rush on

with the tick tick tempo of mounting time.

Summits exist only to be stood upon.~ patsy mcAuley

Answer 1

Its very good, like the tick tick sound when its recited! Being afraid of love, then wanting love, then fearing that love will pass you by with time.

Answer 2

I read this several times. Silently at first, then out loud. Very moving. The third line paints a brilliant picture. The sixth line gave it new life, and I enjoyed the pause at the end... It gave me a feeling of renewed faith... and for that I am thankful.

We stand together... you and I, on this summit called life.

Much love always,

Temari

Answer 3

I like it. Don't be afraid to expose yourself to love.
