The Ladder

Let me build a ladder so tall
That I may touch the planets each and all.
Let me build a ladder so tall
That there is no more gravity to make me fall.
Let me build a ladder so tall
That every problem in the world looks small.
Let me build a ladder so tall
That I may see beyond each discriminating wall.
Let me build a ladder so tall
That there is no more selfishness banal.
Let me build a ladder so tall
That I find pure love and share it with all.
Yes, I can build a ladder so tall
By letting go of my ego and listening to heart’s call.
