Wilma Neels Poet Free verse

'Celebrate the Little Victories'

We get so warped out by fear at times
That we forget to celebrate our little victories every day
Looking back; none of us can say we haven't walked through a storm
Yet, we are still here
Some tattered, emotionally crippled
Not talking about our silent battles

But let me applaud you
You haven't given up, you might have taken a break, but you didn't tap out
So if fear, comes at you today
Embrace that emotion, acknowledge it but don't let it own you

You were not moulded in a cast of fear
You were moulded in victory and promise
Celebrate that!!!
