Array ( [sid] => 46722 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Perseverance [time] => 2004-05-08 22:10:06 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Life seems to take more strength than one can find-
As all that we do seems to be a waste of time-
Yet we look for a way to just hang on till the next day-
And again the sun will rise to great us with a smile…

With determination to continue onward into the future-
Seldom do we think that things will get better for us-
Yet if we choose to give up without any effort-
Then life will seize the opportunity and we will fall…

If we decide to undertake the task of pushing onward-
And we try to make sense of the thing we often fear-
We find purpose in the daily travels that we take-
But then we see that we must be more persistent than life…

One need only to endeavor the chores of daily life-
And persevere to do and be the best that they can-
For if one does not attempt to put forth an effort-
All that they seek will be lost to them forever…

Very good, very very good. I had a pretty bad day today, and this gave it a little more meaning. This has lifted me up a great deal, and I'm glad to see that someone else knows the son will shine again soon. Thank you so much for this.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
