malini kadir - Your Best Mistake

Your last effort; somebody said
Perhaps; did not have the mettle needed
'It was more of;
Not wishing to over step
your toes in haste'
I could answer
But I refrain
The world was
Crafted deftly
I learnt
Even as I stumbled
The tumble weed
Would cry out
In distress
If I did not steadily
Always wish the same
I too; could have
Joined the trodden green
