Careful Next Time

''Each Misstep a Lesson, each Bruise a Guide''

In the quiet moments after the fall,

I gather the pieces, I learn from it all.

Be careful next time, in heart and mind.

Each misstep a lesson, each bruise a guide,

To navigate life with humility and pride.

To tread with caution, to be more kind.

The past is a mirror, reflecting the way,

To brighter tomorrows from shadows of today.

In the dance of redemption, the heart grows sublime,

Promising softly, be careful next time.

For in every stumble, a seed does grow,

With patience and grace, in life's grand climb,

I'll move forward gently, careful next time.
