Mr. Eiffel

Mr. Eiffel

A Poem by Andy Ruffett
"

Everyone needs to go up to the top of this magnificent structure.

"

The Eiffel Tower, how it stands

Far and grand upon this land

Towering upwards towards the sky

And people shudder and sigh

 

Going up is no easy feat

Elevator or stairs, move your feet

Climb up to the top in old class and style

Or take the box that propels you through miles

 

Crowded like herd of sheep gated away

Touching so many bodies, but at least you can say

You made it to the top and it wasn’t so hard

As the lift brought you up and down with the guard

 

But climbing up is oh so much fun

The farther you climb, you see how it begun

How Eiffel came up with such a magnificent plan

One that now everyone still highly commends

 

It needs to be seen by everyone in this world

A strapping young lad or a beautiful girl

Doesn’t matter if you’re fat, scrawny, or thin

Once you’ve gone up, you can say that you’ve been

 

To the top of the tower and have seen all the sights

While the ones on the ground gasp and shriek in delight

You smile and grin knowing now that it’s true:

You made it to the top,

Not them,

You
