The author:
Unfulfilled,
Reaching,
Stretching,
Ninety-thousand words the goal.
The singer:
Memorize,
Expand the range,
Prepare and train,
An entertaining, pleasant presence
Liking for the audience.
The painter and photographer:
Eyes that see,
Composition, color shades,
Nuances of every grade.
Who is important –
What and who’s
Significant to only you.
The lawyer, doctor, engineer,
The lab technician, cook, and waiter,
Business man, entrepreneur:
And all:
What’s honest, ethical,
What’s brave and bold,
What’s true for you
And what you think will hold
Forever.
Even when you know it won’t.
