I like the small flights
from here to just there,
Manageable -
This is how we learn
to believe,
One small step
at a time;
One small step of success
and suddenly I
am a pirate
commandeering a fleet
and I shall try to be gentle
and I shall try to be sweet ~
but my sails are billowing
and my confidence is growing
now that I am standing
on my two feet.
