Reconnaissance
The door is so high
Stair up to the sky
Its hard to climb
My throat is dry
Steps getting high
Tired little thigh
Cold wind blowing down
steps are hot and dry
Some have warm dress
boots to cover mess
We climb the same steps
How is it fair success,?
But when i look back i see
People smaller than my knee
They can't even reach the steps
I shouldn't complaint ,i agree
