He is determined
to reach his goal.

Although
the promised land
is somewhere
near the clouds,
he takes a ladder,
starts climbing.

And while climbing
he likes to
whistle a song.

Stairway to heaven.

Halfway his feet
are sliding
from the ladder.

He falls
to the ground.

Dazed and amazed,
he looks around.

The pasture,
the dancing cows,
the pewits,
the bright yellow sun.

He realizes where he is.

His destination.
