Thoughts to Succeed – poem

Here’s a poem I wrote that started from a rhyme of the first four lines.

What do you need

in this life to succeed?

Ain’t there a book we can

just pick up and read?

Hard work, persistence

and the desire to proceed

are some values to have.

Is it so hard to believe?

Why must we be followers?

Can we just lead?

These thoughts I have

make it tough to breathe.

Then I look to the opportunities

we have that can help us achieve

our dreams and our wishes.

Our reality is what we perceive.

So stay positive at all times

And the negativity, you leave.
