The air here is crisp,

and full of ‘what if’s’

I’m so close to the top

Of this mountainous cliff

A rock shift

A slight rift

A finger slip

And a confidence dip

I can’t hold on

I feel all wrong

All of a sudden my body is aching

Hands are cramping, and muscles are breaking

These are the last few breaths I’ll be taking

This lifetime

I am going to fall

All the way down

From the highest ...

Jackie began to climb, giving it her all. So far, everything had been going fine. She took care of herself and knew what to do. She couldn’t believe it. Jackie was nearing the top, when, all of a sudden, she began to look down. Fear took over her.

She knew the short distance left to the top would determine if she will finally make it. Jackie began to question her abilities.

“Can I really do this?”...

The snow blew in their faces with a large force. Ashina and her wolves pushed on through it.

"How much farther?" A wolf shouted above the loud howling wind.

"Just a little more!" Ashina called back.

Then, the snow stopped and the wolves walked the rest of the way out of the trees. The plains before looked much more peaceful than the forest they had walked through.

Ashina found a huge rock and ...

“You all right man? Hank asked. “You good?”

“I’m good. Nothing can ruin my shine. Some people need to walk on bare earth to be grounded but I need sheer rock to get lifted, bruh. You know what I mean?” Alan said.

Serene blue crags sheltered by bare maples, Birdsboro Quarry was Alan’s second home. He met Molly here. That thought left Alan exposed. A hollowness seeped into Alan as he reached on h...

I used to think it was nothing to

Scale a cliff

And jump

Propelled upward by curiosity and enthusiasm

A desire for adventure

And to show off for the sun

I loved it

It was fun so

Up and off the cliff I would run

But one day growing up

All the sudden

I was done

The wind felt heavier

The ledge felt sharper

The eyes felt judgier

My body jiggled my

Confidence away

Handholds crumbling

The only way to do that would have been for a few days before I would have a full recovery but then it was just too late for that and! The end!...

Jack was rappelling along a red cliff, zig-zagging with the wind that whistled just to tell him he was looking pretty. He laughed to himself.

“What’s funny?” Dylan shouted the question. When Jack got a good look at his face, he knew something was wrong.

“Jack, I’m sorry.” Dylan’s mouth pinched down like he was going to cry, while his eyes shifted in fear. “I didn’t know I’d be so stupid as...
