Here it is,
        the stairway to the stars.

Will you climb it?

There's risk
        in climbing a staircase
        so narrow
        so steep
        stretching out of sight.

What if you should fall,
        landing in a field
        full of lavender flowers?

Will you cry?
No, you play
        while children
        stare down at you
        with widened eyes.
