Walking Poem by Practicing Poetess

Walking

Rating: 5.0


Even little toddlers
Slip sometimes
When proudly learning to walk.
So think of it that way
When you recall Thursday.
You fell really hard, didn't you,
And savoured the brief pain
And afterwards, the old, familiar feeling
Of crawling once again.
You're still much too steeped
In old memories of crawling
Walking is the new, the difficult,
The unlearned- -
But don't quit now.
Give it time.
You'll find, as it becomes ever easier,
A much nobler experience
Than crawling ever was.

Many thanks, Rebecca, for noticing and giving attention to the orphans (the uncommented-on poems at the bottom of my list.) That lets me know that you think outside the box, and appreciate things that others may not. You would make a great poetry critic! Keep up your own good work, and keep that good heart that you have! :)
