Perspective:
The staircase may ascend,
Or descend, it’s determined,
By where you begin.
This road of life may seem,
Long and narrow for some,
Or short and broad to others,
It depends on where you stand.
A path of stepping stones,
Has been laid to create an average, but you may have short legs, or a longer gate then those,
It was designed for.

Hey Alan,
I like the metaphore,
I am short legged,
Hey Alan, I agree with Moneypenny and BL. I think your poem is wonderful. Writing is great therapy. I think it’s partly responsible for why I’m still here on this cursed rock of a world. Not sure if that’s a good thing or not. Haha!
Thanks for sharing your poem with us. I look forward to reading more of your work. And I really mean that. Yeah, and this comes from a guy that doesn’t look forward to much anymore. Thanks for that gift.
Respectfully,
Jack
