Clumsy

The trip to the floor

Is as quick as can be

At least for somebody

As clumsy as me

I thought I'd outgrow it

Eventually

But I guess that clumsy

Is forever for me

I love this very witty write, Jim. The trip to the floor is a very sudden and fast one. Hope nothing got broken in your encounter with the floor and that you got over the shock quickly. It is not clumsy to fall, it just happens and once you are alright afterwards, with nothing broken, all is well. Thank you for sharing, Jim. A poem which we can all identify with...

Thank you so much. Trips and toe-stubbing are par for the course for me. ~Jim

Most welcome always, Jim. Please be careful with tripping up, it's so easy to do damage in a fall or break a bone in a toe stub. Have a very nice evening, relax and enjoy, Jim...
