The Steps To Heaven

Each step a lesson
Either taught, learned, or inspired
All leading along the path
To the destination at the end
No one exempt
All striving to make a mark
Many stuck in a rut
Of their own choices
Plotting to make anew
Instead digging downwards
Others seeking servitude find gratitude
Although some may attempt
In belittling each path
The light shines brightly
On each step to Heaven
