Life's loves and losses tangled at her feet,
she takes three steps and falls back two.
She is less then poetry in motion
but she gets up, brushes off and stumbles through.

When her going seemed so useless;
she blindly walked her path,
Making more mistakes then victories,
often swallowing life's wrath.

Known for her many mistakes,
and cursed for them too.
She trudges on and on,
Smiling at her victories... a few
(she is "I")

Lori~
Just perfect I think.
We must all learn to celebrate the victories, no matter how small we perceive them to be ... they add up !
The Challenge Forum is great for stirring the creative juices.
You more than met the challenge.
Nicely done.

Angels - this is wonderful!

Known for her many mistakes,
and cursed for them too.
She trudges on and on,
Smiling at her victories... a few

I can really identify with this, and you may count your poem as one of your victories...

I guess we all make mistakes and learn by them ... But I like the victories best
