The Tortoise
#WritcoPoemPrompt68
Hurdles can always be jumped over, Like a labyrinth guiding us to sweep our troubles away, It may not be neatly organized, straight-forward, or efficient, But there will always be a way to jump over it, be it with one leg, two, or even four. Like the slow moving Tortoise the shell of life will hold you down, but one step at a time will surely get you to the finish line. There is no balance without opposition, one cannot live on one side of the scale, so by all means count it all joy. Your darkness will teach you to appreciate the light, so remember that you are planted..... NOT BURIED
