743. the climb

three vines to the sky
which one shall i try to climb?
once upon a time…  🦊❤️

I was recently talking to a friend about high school wrestling practice and gym class and climbing the rope to the top of the gymnasium for exercise.    The next day I took special notice of three very substantial vines hanging from trees in the woods. I stood and relived the triumphant feeling I felt decades ago after making it to the top, touching the metal I-beam and looking down at the kids below. I even remembered the fingerprints in the dust on the metal ceiling beam left there by other triumphant climbers. Memories…🦊❤️
