Notes About The Poem

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

To the other.

 

Lifes Hurdles In Our Minds

"'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
