14. Life

14. Life
 
Life is a series
Of steps / stages,
Each step is different
From its predecessor

Every stumbling block
That comes across
Should be made into
A stepping stone
That lays the foundation
For more difficult
And enduring
Steps to follow

But,
The steps
That preceded are gone
For good
The step to be taken
Has not yet come

Hence,
What matter most,
Is the step
In motion
That focuses
The mind
To be still for
A moment
Of its vagary
And deception
