On Taking Steps

True miracle – a child’s first steps;

 But adults also want success

Rising from dark 'black dog' depths

To peerless view – devoid of stress.

 

Life’s best milestones can be tough;

Worthless is the easy way

Achievers all ooze the right stuff

Putting real grit on display.

 

You may have failed at first attempt,

But gird  up your loins once more

With determination your intent,

And wings of hope, you soar!

 

That longed-for prize lies in your grasp

Never won by the faint-hearted

So, knuckle down to your dream task

The time is now - get started!
