Excerpts from My Dream, Book of Poems, Inspirational and Heart Warming

 

Below is a excerpt from the first poem in my book, My Dream.  The poem is titled, Give UP.  It is my favorite out of 90 poems.     

You can hear a snapshot of the first track of my new CD.  The first track is the poem, Give UP.  Click on the link below, turn up the volume and enjoy.  There will be a brief pause before the poem starts.  Let me know what you think.

Give Up

 

Never give up

For however long it takes

Never give up

For you will get that special break

 

Break into your dreams

And destiny with full force

Navigate your move and

Take the right course

 

Never give up

Go after it with

Drive, Passion and a Strong Hold!

For you will reach

Your desired goal

 

Take your dreams

And make of it what you want

Don’t wait for someone else

To get in front

Thank you, Anna.

It is an inspirational poem with many hints.

And Anna's comment made me think about the greatest sportsman (Ali 70 years old today)

and the wonderful writer Charles Dickens(Birthday next month 7th February). I've been a BARR

(Road Race Director) for over ten years and I know that guy in front. And he knows the one in

front of him.  Writing too can be solitary but best done in good company. It keeps us on an even

keel and before we know it we reach our destination.

So spare a thought for the guy running right in front of you:

***

"See there the guy in front,

who suffers as much as me,

yet by help and joining hands:

the double- win for me  and thee."

Nice - you could apply that to the guy running right behind you too.
