One step at a Time

One step at a time
We temper illusion and
Question conclusion.

One step at a time
We step to heaven or hell
Or a neither dwell

One step at a time
Phantoms fantasy cobwebs
Our flow and our ebb

One step at a time
Circles propensity to
A changed entity

One step at a time
Sends us day by day into
Eternities way.

Being and ending
Constantly shifting the prime
One step at a time.

Ahh my King of Senryu/Haiku
you wrap wisdom around your syllables and we reap the benefit  
Thank you for the dish of wise-rice this morn
it went well with me raspberry tea
*winkiewinkie*
me

This distance has shown how the road remains alone
Now I'm looking in my life ... for a truth that is my own.

BRAVO!!!!You are so very right. It is all done one single step at a time. I love this. It makes anything seems possible when you only have to start with one step.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Seymour~  The rhyme and flow of this emphasize those small steps taken one at a time...a perfect philosophy of life

You speak of such agility in your write...you know I don't have any coordination...but I'd give it a shot just to follow along with you!   I'll take baby steps. You always have so much insight in your poetry. Appreciate you Sy.

Sincerely,
Regina
