Life is a daily challenge, you hope you can make it  from one side

To the other.

 

"'If I'm the world's biggest failure Does that make me a success?'' -Peter Dome. Life is a series of stepping stones A challenge we have to face Each every day We try to keep our balance Winds may blow us over We either make it or we fall Obstacles may get in our way Sometimes we don't make it at all Many try to live their lives all at once And trip over It's hard if we try to get From one step to the next Blinded by darkness We have to be careful If our feet don't know where to go So we take a breath And go real slow Sometimes our feet get stuck in the mud We struggle with all our mite Or we find ourselves in quicksand And we lose the fight

loved your thought-provoking original quote. You gave the reader some wisdom on how to handle life's challenges (obstacles that get in our way) I especially liked, "blinded by darkness we have to be careful" So true. Enjoyed your poem. Have a splendid weekend, Sara
