The Old Staircase

What is it about staircases? Why do they grab our attention and forever remain in our memory?
Travelers might recall trees, lakes, and mountains differently. They might years later disagree about the season they shared in a village. No one disagrees about a memorable staircase.
Perchance a staircase is just too precious to forget. After all it is the staircase that leads to a place "above." Could it be a road to heaven?
Who knows. And regardless, a stairway constructed of artistic design and function is a marvel to behold.
Those who actually sweep up or down its course are privileged. I love staircases whether grand or petite.
