of course I’ll celebrate
when you get to the
top of that mountain
and help plant the flag
of your hundred-year goal
into the soil of your legacy
I’m sure hugs and kisses and
wrapping paper will drape
you as the gifts pour in
we’ll leave you to your joy
and head down the incline
as it all comes to a close
though I hope you remember
to take little steps
on your way back down
