We come to the edge,
The end of where we are
And peer at the next step.
Will we leap?
Will we take the plunge?
Do we have enough stuff
inside us to jump?
Of course, there is fear.
Will it work?
Will they buy?
Will they listen and read?
Will they like us?
Will they come back?
Will we still be friends?
Are we strong enough?
Tough dilemmas.
Tough decisions.
And what next?
We search for a parachute,
a safety net,
a guarantee.
There are none –
not one.
Are we prepared enough,
skilled enough,
talented enough,
thinking enough?
Have we studied enough,
read enough?
And one fine day
We leap.
We fall …
and then the winds of success
catch our sails
and we soar,
we fly,
we become!
What a moment!
We find success at the edge
of our dreams and hopes,
and after we leap.
I say LEAP…
and happy landings.
