When things go wrong
As they sometimes will,
When the road
You're trudging
Seems all up hill,
When the funds are low
& the debts are high,
& you want to smile
But you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must,
But don't you quit.
Life is queer
With its twist and turns,
As every one of us
Sometimes learns,
& many a
Failure turns about,
When you might have won,
Had you stuck it out?
Don't give up,
Though the pace
Seems slow-
You may succeed with
Another blow.
Success is failure turned
Inside out-
The silver tint of the
Clouds of doubt.
& you can never tell
How close you are;
It may be near
When it seems so far.
So stick to the fight
When you're hardest hit-
It's when things seem worst,
That you must not quit.
Absolutely beautiful, for once a poem that actually hs a good meaning to it. I loved the flow of it and the rythym..... just made me feel good.... good job you should check out some of mine
