Strong systems
should be
resilient,
tolerant of
faults,
resistant to
failure.
But when they fail,
they fail with
grace,
gently,
as a falling leaf
alighting
on the ground.
I wonder sometimes
what it would mean
if strong men
should be
tolerant,
graceful,
gentle as a leaf.

Thank you for the sweet and thoughtful poem. I hope it's not crass to reply with a gif, but you reminded me of one of my favourite moments from a show I love - https://mygeekwisdom.com/2015/08/22/i-am-a-leaf-on-the-wind-watch-how-i-soar/
@da5nsy Not at all! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

@mttaggart Weird that this post and the original both double-posted on my timeline.
@cR0w It did double-post! Deleted the duplicate.
