The Instability of heights far from the ground

Are Man-Built structures bound to collapse

Children who know these are not a playground

Are scared by them, Earthbound among them was I

 

Looking at the foot of the Eiffel Tower of Paris,

Parents trying to empower the child, tell of its safety

The structure had stood for over a million hours

Millions had willpower to journey to the top already

 

Finally they struck a deal with their daughter

If she would not be amok and go to the top,

They would let her and luck choose a place to visit,

She chose Euro Disney and the deal was struck

 

Paris was beautiful from the Tower’s great height

A compass pointed straight at various cities

The fascinated child would soon visit Euro Disney, and

She tells her classmates she stood at the top of the Eiffel Tower.

 

The Eiffel Tower did not collapse under her mere weight

Her parents helped her overcome her fears.

She learned there was no factual reason for her fears,

And by overcoming the tears, she experienced things

That she otherwise wouldn’t have been able to cheer
