Optimum Measure

Originally published in Out On a Limb, an Anthology for Friends, June 2020 They can put a man On a pedestal, Have him admired Far and wide; But he’ll never Really be that tall Unless he feels That way inside. The crowd can make A man a king And call him A big success, But he must reach Goals he’s set himself If he’s to find True happiness.
