"They showed such promise,
Came so close ...
On the very brink of making it
To the next level.
So much for that experiment!
Too bad.
Let's see now ...
What to create next?"

Thanks so much, WL. I appreciate your comment.
Good write! This is exactly how I write my poetry....lol. 2 out of 3 poems never make it to the publish button!
Ah, a poet who is discriminating as to what she publishes. Congratulations, and thanks for your input, Christina!
Louis, the way I see this poem, the who, what and why is not relevant. The poem tells me not to give up, to keep on going, to see failure as an opportunity, to learn from past mistakes.
Very well written, like it a lot!
Your interpretation and thoughts are very much appreciated, Fred. Wise comments, my friend!
