Falling Upward

Posted on August 10, 2013 by wbgayle

Weary.
The trail is steep.
Days have turned into nights
and back into days again as
I climb that rocky path to a new place.
Will I make it to the top or
turn around?  I cannot
know now.  I am
weary.

    “I’m pressing on the upward way, New heights I’m gaining every day; Still praying as I onward bound, ‘Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.’ Lord, lift me up and let me stand By faith on heaven’s tableland’ A higher plane than I have found, Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
    This old Baptist hymn started playing in my mind when I read your poem. Hang in there! Almost done!
