Thursday Writing Essential: Stumble And Fall...

Stumbling and falling

Making mistakes

For us average folks

Can be hard to take.

Making mistakes

Reminds us we're human

Getting right back up

Is what we should be doin'.

For us average folks

To get through this life

We need Jesus, the Saviour

Who endured much strife.

Can be hard to take,

Our struggles and loss

But think how hard it was

To go to the cross.

(This poem started out to be a Trimeric, but I goofed up the second stanza and went with it...) ;)

I forgot to say how nice your poem is. It's a beautiful reminder.

This is exactly what I meant and I am very impressed with your work. Next week it would help if you waited until Thursday to post it though.
