She is definitely determined to get to the top and will ignore sores and punctures to get there. It seems as though the hurts in life we feel; but with the strength of family and friends we push on and we keep climbing. Very Inspirational!

I definitely liked the rhyming pattern.. it felt like the syllable count fell off the track at times, but then again, a poem's no good if all it does is sound like a metronome. Very good imagery, well-developed and excellent for describing life. My only question would be, what's at the end of the ladder? Or is that the question we can ask and never answer?

I got hooked on the imagery in this. Not much I can put into words except... wow! I'm really looking forward to reading the rest of your poetry, as well as what you haven't written yet.

You should get these things published...the meaning in all of your poem's are amazing.
Even though she is faced with those raining against her...she keeps going throughout it all.
Such determination...

I can picture you climbing this sky-high ladder in the darkness of a rainstorm!
"As the rain falls on my hood"

All right, haven't been on here in a few weeks, so I'm back. Good rhymes and the beat structure works, I think you should add a few stanzas about how the weather changes from one extreme to the other (blinding light and blistering heat, then bitter cold and snow, tranquility, etc.) and how it affects the climb (do we slip a few rungs in bad weather, or maybe tend to not do any climbing at all in good weather so we can take a break?). Its kind of like though the seasons change, life works the same, you can climb or fall, or merely sit still, but eventually the ladder will rot and tumble with or without you.

Nice metaphor of life, the way
things get harder and harder
as you reach your vintage years
but you should prevail.
Not sure about the everlasting
unless it's about humanity
in which case I'm not sure either
still, optimism is always prescribed
Great work.

This is very good and does a fine job of describing the subject and the image in my mind makes it even more real.
