Our need to always do better, nothing is perfect, motivated to take every opportunity even with  trepidation, to exceed our limits. 

Perfection walks the high wire between excellence and better yet Her cap is spun of gold, her smile sparkles below eyes fixed like lasers at her goal A body sheathed in strength around a delicate frame She steady's her tactile feet, inching carefully along the wire Heel to toe, heel to toe, pausing, balancing; A stilled breath, inhaling with each step Advancing beyond excellence to better yet!
