My Pride Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

- * MY PRIDE * -

As I stepped out my door today
I dropped a step or two
Forgetting that my patio
Construction was in lieu.

Forward I tossed
On my butt, I'd land
Oh, thank you God
for construction sand.

I got up fast
and looked around
Did anyone see-
As I hit the ground?

No one I can see
God's here again
Now I have time
My looks to Amend.

Brushed myself off
My poise I regain
Oh! my-my Pride-
Oh! what a pain.
