The Porch's Edge

Walking by my porch’s side I remembered when I was a child I remembered trying to balance myself While walking along the porch’s edge; without any help It took a lot of perseverance, for I fell down a lot But, I never gave up; trying to reach the end of the plot Day after day I continued to try Until one day, I had my smile touch the sky …I did it… And for a child, that was an amazing prize Here I am, standing on the porch’s edge Balancing my life on what’s right Holding on to perseverance’s pledge As I strive towards the roads of life
