The Story of the Climb

FOOTPRINTS - The Story of the Climb

Far flung constellations of serene brilliance / our stars fill gazing eyes with awe / Studding the darkest nights with pinpoints of shine / revealing nothing of their beginnings except…trailing footprints / In these footprints lies the story of the climb.

Footprints are pictures of giants gone by, those persons who, while walking on earth, touched the sky / Ascending along paths of shared struggles and joys that moulded and created what we are now / Giants not in stature, claim or fame, but through hard work and dedication made their name / We follow their path, leaving footprints of our own / adding to the story of the climb.

For our footprints do not fade as we wend our way, for a confident tread leaves marks that stay / We walk with purpose that we do what is right, and together, as a team, we generate our light / And those who journey with us from time to time make footprints of their own / they too share our shine / As our evolution continues, and we learn and grow, we celebrate the past, the present, the future that unfolds / we celebrate the story of the climb.
