Up
The briefing made it loud and clear
That we would have to persevere
To reach the summit, the iconic O2
To witness a simply stunning view
I’ve got to admit I didn’t like the harness much
Gave me a wedgy, too tight on the crutch
The walking shoes completed the kit
Another reminder it would help to be fit.
We made our way up stairs to the start
The gradient of the walk, a flutter of the heart
Hooked on the line we started the climb
Gingerly making progress not looking for a time
Step by step the vista magnificently appeared
All our fears melted away, disappeared
Canary Wharf majestic in the sunlight
Seen at its best from this amazing height
At the summit we were unshackled, let free
To take in the view, pose for a selfie
It felt amazing, it felt like home
To be on top of the Millennium Dome.
