I agree with All the other comments! Reminds me of a song that came out here a few years ago: 'I get knocked down, I get up again....Nobody gonna keep me down' (roughly) . I well believe you Patricia.

I like this, I like the title as well, I enjoy works that inspire people to make a go of their lives, Despite all the trials and tribulations, And this does that in no uncertain terms, Get in there, You have something to offer and be appreciated

An interesting write, Patricia. It leaves me wondering about the storm. Is it one of Mother Nature's? Or something more personal? The feet that will 'walk on' could be walking away from anything! I like this sort of poem where we are left with questions. A compelling read. Love, Fran xxx
