Small To Large Steps.

Goldfinch60



Along the path of our life

We take many steps,

Some lead us the right way,

Some lead us the wrong way,

But each one gives us experience,

The experience of life.

Then comes that day

When we take the smallest step,

The smallest step along our path,

But it is in the right direction

And becomes the biggest step,

The biggest step in our lives.

    Good write Gold.
    It was us two of course that made that first one small step for man, and one big step for mankind. We were on the Moon ages ago and met the first Earthlings who arrived there! Did we get there by the No.7 bus? lol.

      Thanks Orchi.

      I thought it was the Number 11 bus we took.

        We marching or something, Andy? Can't be right - marching steps are uniform... Wot about a waltz? ( not with you - sorry to disappoint.... an 'excuse me' with your lady) 🙂 😇

        • Goldfinch60

          No not marching, just stepping our way through life.
          I am sure 'my lady' would have a waltz with you Dave, just the one waltz though.

              “But each one gives us experience,” so true, even the roughest patch is a teaching moment.
              Nice write Andy.

              • Goldfinch60

                Thank you John, you cannot teach experience.

                The smallest step only completes the other bigger ones, right or wrong.

                • Goldfinch60

                  It can be that was rhmn_7 but those small steps can take us into a great new life.
