Undeterred

Tripping over my own early start.
My tangled laces that just won’t part.

I sort it out & push myself thru.
Now, this would be stumble “number two”.

Way too early, before gates open;
I walk the lot, my stride unbroken.

They let me in & I get it done.
Just in time for, yet, another one.

Skyward opens & the floods come down.
I pick up the pace so I don’t drown.

Soaked but back home…an unmelted mess.
Feels good beating the odds, I confess.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
