One Step.

Goldfinch60



Today I take another step,

Another step in my life.

Each step takes me further,

Further in my life.

I look back and see so many,

So many steps,

And I know if I look forward

There will be fewer steps.

But as I do now

And have done all my life

I just take one step,

One more step up,

And that is what I need,

I only need that one step,

One step at a time

To fulfil my life,

My wonderful life,

Where I have never rushed

By just taking my time

And moving up that one step.

One step at a time.

        Only the first step achieves our dream,
        When we boldly decide to begin the task,
        That gives to our dreams successful steam,
        To help us, God, we can hopefully ask!

          Our own gods are there for us mv.

            Here I am reminded of the African term Tanka Tanka .. which means one step at a time .. I used to volunteer at the West African Psychiatric Hospital that was called Tanka Tanka .. its a good lesson to learn ... Neville
