Life
Drives me frightened
To the edge.

Life
With rough hands that seem cruel
And unknown to mercy -
Pushes me
Hard
Past the edge
Over.

Life
With the very same hands,
Catches me -
And teaches me
To fly.

It surely does have its up and downs that is for sure. A learning experience I truly am enjoying though. I enjoyed this.

How beautifully you capture life and the experience of life... wow. Gentle power within your words. And this poem sings so accurately of the Truth that is Life. How incredible, how frightening, how exhilarating... how graceful, the hands that catch you. And then... you learn to fly... how perfect. The same wind that can batter you can lift you up. Wow. Truth.

You are amazing... you know that? Pure magic.

Thank you... I love this!

Love,
Moca

Short, sweet, captivating view of Life.I like esp. the ff:
"Life
With the very same hands,
Catches me -
And teaches me
To fly."
