Consider an inch worm…
Moving an inch per stretch.
It's no use if you struggle to squirm,
Your thirst for distance cannot be quenched.
Limited by the size you posses,
It's tempting to give up on dreams.
But move on little worm and start a quest!
Muster up your courage, build up some steam!
Yes, it's daunting to look so far ahead.
When you don't know if you can commit.
Will you ever find places exciting to tread?
Not if you set yourself here with a mental limit.
There is adventure to be had for little you…
Even if you feel it's bigger than you're capable.
But along the way invite dear ones to help you.
They will carry you in ways you never thought achievable.
If we join together as inch worms in life…
We can link to make a foot and eventually a yard.
With everyone in, we can even link much more than a mile!
Lovingly reach for each other to overcome days that seem so hard.
