Dear Sister,

Every once in a while one must move forward
With a little sigh and hope at heart
And not to forget to keep one’s finger crossed
While fear sometimes gets in the way
One takes action and wishes and prays
Not a leap,
But a little baby step
Another baby step
And one other
One more
A little more
Then,
… voila!

Hear… hear…
Time’s ticking
Bones flickering
One does the best
Or put onto rest
Then be brave
For it must be safe
To weep and to fail
To win and to feel
It’s life after all.
