From flowers
soil stained
and earth embedded
we rise up
on the ladder of life
or the road of work
to the clouds
only to be rained down again.
No one ever stays at the top...
but people can always stay at the bottom.
Author notes
The title is the painting i picked. Whee!
The poem is about the cycle of success and fortune in people's lives. I hope its okay. I did like the coffee cup in the painting...only I wasn't sure how to put that in.

Very nice. I am exceedingly pleased with this. Thank you so much for your entry.
That painting is the only one I've ever sold so its important to me, I guess. I'm glad you chose it.
