Stepping Up

by Jan 15, 2019Original Poems

Big steps.
Big shoes.
Big shoes to fill.
I slip and slide as I walk up hill.
Step in, slide out, step in again.
I rise and fall until I win.
My feet will grow with every step.
Every mistake I will intercept,
noted in a book for time to pass,
so that new success will have longer last.

My time has come,
old shoes, new fit:
comfortable feel, with brand new wit.

I now shall rise above the bar
to greet the twinkle of my star,
and see the things that I shall do
to taste the journey I will pursue.
