   True riders climb back on indeed, it’s all a matter of falling and then having the courage to get back on again. Beautifully and wonderfully said, Frank. ❤ Making a stand is one of the strongest things we could do to build our confidence and face our fears.

   I really like this line: “Everyone riding dragons gets thrown. The true riders get back up.”
   Nicely done poem.

   Frank, I like your battling dragons of one kind or another. It’s important to know where to make your stand. A cool evening after a dragon’s breath day sounds like a good place to make one.

   “Everyone riding dragons gets thrown.” So true, even when we don’t expect it. I like the terse lines, each holding so much.
