The Climb

I live on a Tennessee mountain,

and that is where my standards lie.

Courageous, erudite, selfless,

my bar is set very high.

I became a leader to the younger,

with service at its base,

I'm an athlete, scholar, and a graphic artist,

though busy, I love the fast pace.

When people see my schedule,

they often they ask me "how?"

But it was definitely worth the view

to get to the place I am in now.
