I had almost reached it!
Victory,just barely in my grasp
But pride comes before the fall
And I,
Have fallen at last

The author's comments:
inspired by an Emily Dickinson poem that I had read. (Love her poetry!!) and I just picked the picture with the poem, just 'cause it was cool(!) Kudos to whoever took the photo or drew it!
