I feel honored that you asked, Drohan

Frequently poetry is hazy on meaning..he's often asked about having fears of falling, because he's so..well, fearless appearing...:) That was his answer - he fears the landing if the worst were to ever happen and beyond that, not having his experiences of thrills of the conquest - man over metal, concrete, glass - the scenery he sees and lives for, etc.; not having these experiences documented fully. He's hinted about a poem on the subject to me several times (knowing I kind of like to write poetry..:)) and this is my effort - finally.

Thank you again.

Just before I read your poem, I had been reading an email from "R" about another Tom who had been making a climb of a different kind, and fell.  The stories were so alike in ways that I imagined it was of the same Tom.  I'm glad to know its not.  Great writing.

thanks reas ,what i understood is in direct way and the fear of the broken spirit , glad that he is ok as he looks like some of my friends but some times the words could  carry different meaning and the towers could mean other things ...always i seek the far meaning , feeling comfotable now for what i hear ..my regads to him and to you .

Not sad, Drohan..he's fine..a friend who climbs towers very daringly

to incredible heights..and he's quite proud of it...:) Thank you for your kind words, dear Friend.
