Climb up to the peak

But do not climb too quickly

Or you will collapse


Author’s Note: After a brief hiatus for personal reasons, I am back with day thirty-eight on my path down the fifty-day song/lyric-based senryū challenge. Today’s poem is inspired by “The Climb” by Miley Cyrus, which you can listen to below.
