Success Steps Poem


Twelve months of perspective unfolded to observe.

Eleven changes to ponder just for myself.

Ten wishes to think of during the daylight hours when stars are away.

Nine favorite moments that make me who I am.

Eight struggles that shape the edges of my character.

Seven days a week to keep up a regular habit.

Six tries to break from bad routines.

Five minutes to daydream should be enough for now.

Four times I could have counted as failure.

Three people that were there to support me through the worst.

Two seconds to breathe after it all so I can start again.

One dream to follow as I float through life.
