The Drive - Allegorical.

it was a gradual slope
 high on one side
 low on the other stroke
 climbing up on one side
 with a struggle and a falter
reached the top with a strain
 gasped with a lot of tenor
 as I am not the one to feign
 sat there on the peak for a while
 descended on the other side
 could be done with ease and style
 as I ran down the slope in a ride
all of us know it is hard to surmount
 and easy to unmount.
