Walking On A Tightrope Poem by Bipasha Dutt

Walking On A Tightrope

Rating: 5.0


Life is like walking on a tightrope
It's a balance between despair and hope

Take a single step at a moment
Rush not and remain prudent

Maintain focus to move forward
It's futile to look backward

If it feels like a never ending distance
Keep going and hold on to your patience

Stop if you must and take a deep breath
Rest for a while and again concentrate

Be cautious as well as courageous
As game of life can turn dangerous

But once you achieve enormous flair
Life becomes an enthralling affair

only found one typo, in P. Notes, not poem. of course PH may have made it! ! i guess you mean definition #1. flair noun 1. a special or instinctive aptitude or ability for doing something well. synonyms: aptitude, talent, gift, instinct, (natural) ability, facility, skill, bent, feel, knack 2. stylishness and originality. YES, don't look 'back', NOR 'down'! to MyPoemList bri (: Yale?

Thank you. A reckless life not only brings disaster to self but to others. But a cautious and conscious life uplifts the general well being of everyone.
