Breaking Falls

Children are fearless tree climbers

Entertaining no concern for peril
Mother’s chide and warn of dangers
To the child, their fear is noise
the possible long fall to the earth; reasoning as they do
will be hindered by the branches
They take risk…for the glory of living out loud
We adults are experienced with mishap; but for the scars we are wise
But for the scars we must guard against our fear
Avoiding conditions that teach us more



Change is a demand…not request
