THE WAY UP

The Way up,

The path upward,

The route to the hills,

Is not up but down.



The way up,

To the height of wealth,

The mount of fame,

Is not up but down.



The way up,

To the place of plenty,

The point of perfection

Is not up but down.



The way up,

To the Zenith of achievement,

The crescendo of life,

Is not up but down.



The way up,

To the seat of self-realization,

The Utopia of realities,

The way up is down, not up.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Humulity to start from the base is the secret of greatness. All ladders are climbed from the foot.
