i
built
a tower
way up high
i built
a castle
in the sky
I built it      high as it.    could get
with spikes and spires  
and minarets
it had an ivory sort of gleam
alabaster
in its sheen
I constructed it so proud
but it was made of glass and cloud
i built and built
i could not stop!
i climbed up to
the very top!!!!
but when I got up there i found
i had no ladder
to
  get
