Wilma Neels Poet Free verse

'fall Short'

Choose your words wisely –

Don’t put people on a pedestal
When they didn’t volunteer for the position
We all fail sometimes -

Don’t let your judgment be the only thing they remember

Kelly Deschler March 4, 2015 at 12:37 AM If we think too highly of someone, the harder it is to except it when they fall... This is a clever write and a good lesson for everyone to learn. Great work, Wilma!
