Analysis of Venturesome
I tried and tried but could not climb;
My energy was gone.
I felt discouragement each time,
Since I first tried at dawn.
As I went to the mountain base,
A plateau came in sight.
I quickly saw there was no trace
Of venturesome delight!
I turned to leave but then I saw
A hill with much, much more!
It had so much of nature's awe
I'd never seen before.
