I Stand Up – A Tanka

I stand up then fall

Like a toddler past his prime

Every step my first

I suppose life works this way

Until the day of our death

    Sounds about right. Like a toddler, we have to keep picking ourselves up.

      How true and age doesn’t matter. :)

    You’re probably right!

      This is true at least for me. :)

    Sometimes life feels like we’re stumbling and staggering, barely in control, doesn’t it?

      Very often it does, but I guess that is all part of a lifetime of learning. :)
