Slow and steady works best
when slogging through
the mud of Life
(Unless, one has perfected
tiptoeing across the top…)
Muddled and cuddled
by squishy earth and water
the stuff of dreams or nightmares
And, great for the skin
with other immediate benefits
even as it sucks you in
Just when I thought
I was too deep in mud
The water softened
revealing rocks beneath
And, sun above, cheering
cleared my way
slow and steady
And tenacity arrived
at a brighter day
I was too deep in mud
The water softened
revealing rocks beneath
And, sun above, cheering
cleared my way
slow and steady
And tenacity arrived
at a brighter day
