Step by Step

Step by step, climb those stairs.

Work your way up. Erupt like

a volcano once dormant. Break

the mold. Put bad days on hold.

One day at a time. Find the words

that rhyme. Climb that mountain.

Cleanse yourself in that fountain.

Step on that ladder. Get to the top.

There’s no rush. Take it real slow.

Just don’t stop; it’s your time to go.

If you slip up and fall down; get up.

Shoot for the stars. Reach for the sky.

No time to rest. It’s time to fly.
