Rivers, ©2020 The old things occurring in the past Oh so painful, you ask, will they last? The times before oft times you wouldn't think But these things, it seems, go by in a blink. Oh, now what shall I think Will I ever be beyond the brink? Will I go on as I have before Or, will I be forever cast ashore? Is there any hope to be seen; Is there happier times to think? Shall I not ever venture forth again, Beyond the shores to make some gain? Do not be full of fear I think, But is this not foolhardy like frothy drink? Oh so sad, I think, that this may be so To never think past my worried woes. It is not, I think, to be so mired In all those things as past desires. I know that life is not so cast That I should think of all things past. For in the morning, does not the sun align, That I might not think of more things to shine? Be not dismayed when I define The world to show is still refined. Now I see far past my pain There is more to life than to abstain. To think that I might not have grasped All that, I want, I saw at last. 
Does Wisdom Come Poet: Byron Pulsifer, ©2020 I've looked and gazed upon the stars For the everlasting wisdom from seminars. I've found the ways and means To seize the pearls that I can glean. There is so much to absorb For wisdom needs to be disrobed. The quest to reach the top Is never something that can be dropped. Upon the day I do shine Without a worry, I feel divine. For wisdom comes throughout the day It is always my great mainstay. For those who doubt that wisdom comes They are those who are held ransom, Because they seem to say I can't find a way, I'm always gray. To those who seek beyond the norm Hold out your hand and join the swarm. Wisdom is not denied you see When you run with hearts of glee. I am not so one to cry I' sure not one to be shy. For wisdom comes to those who quest So never more to settle for less. Fate Challenged Poet: Robert R. Rivers, ©2020 Is this not all you deserve, Despite the wants that seem in reserve? Did you not want more things desired But got much less than you aspired? Are we all so set and mired In nothing more than fate desired? Are we to think that no one's empire Is only a dream to be desired? Beyond the hills you so clearly see Many others who grasp better quality. Those things that hearts so clearly see Are for others and not for me. Why should I settle for less than others I must admit I'm feeling smothered. I long for all those things I planned But only get what has not been banned. What fate, then, do I deserve If not like others without reserve. What can I do to change my past So I can grasp and gain at last? So is it not more than my desires That I can change what fate requires? I know what I am able to do I am more than what is taboo. You see, I believe, that windows can open For all those who see great future for certain. It is not fate that casts me down But only destructive thoughts make me drown. Be You No Matter Who Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2013 There are people out there, Who believe it's their right. To tear others down, And take away their light. These people are mean, And troubled all their own. But they do not have the right, To take away your thrown. So stand up tall, And flutter those wings. Never allow others to, Take away your springs. Be cheerful and happy, Be lovely and chatty. As no one can change you, Unless you allow it. 
Stick to It! Poet: David V. Bush When your plans have gone awry, Things will straighten if you try. When perplexed just what to do, Sand and grit will help you through. Let this be your final clue — Stick to it! When your schemes have taken wings, Vict'ry comes to him who sings. When your project's wrecked and smashed; Plans by hostile critics lashed; And you feel your spirit thrashed, Stick to it! When your back is nearly broke, Race is won by ONE MORE stroke — Lost your rudder in the gale; Seems that you are bound to fail? Storm-clouds clear; misfortunes pale — Stick to it! 
Sing A Song Poet: Unknown If you'll sing a song as you go along, In the face of a real or a fancied wrong; If, in spite of the doubt, you will fight it out And show a heart that is brave and stout; If you'll laugh at the jeers and refuse the tears, You'll force the ever reluctant cheers That the world denies when a coward cries And gives to the man who bravely tries, — And you'll win success with a little song. If you'll sing the song as you go along. If you'll sing a song as you go along, You'll find that the singing will make you strong. And the heavy load and the rugged road. And the sting and the strife of the torturous goad Will soar with the note that you set afloat, That the beam will change to a trifling moat, — That the world is sad when you are sad. And bright and beautiful when you are glad; And that all you need is a little song. If you'll sing the song as you trudge along. 
Two Days of Every Week Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2012 That might seem a little blurry. There are two days of every week, That we should all not worry. Some of us tend to worry, every single day. But there are two days of the week, that we should instead pray. Today is the day that we, will live out and choose our route. But tomorrow or yesterday, are either done or not played out. So these two days we should reserve, for only happy thoughts. Worrying is never good, we should try and disconnect the dots. Yesterday has already passed, with all its past mistakes. There is no point to worrying, mistakes are part of life's stakes. Tomorrow hasn't even come, to worry would be a waste. Why spend so much energy, and possibly change how tomorrow is faced. Worrying can do much more, than any of us see. We know we can't change the past, but the future we can lead. So don't allow yourself to worry, about things that have passed. And don't allow yourself to worry, about things that haven't even past. Grit Your Teeth And Bear It Poet: David V. Bush "When each thing has gone awry, Grit your teeth and bear it! "When you choke and heave a sigh, Grit your teeth and bear it! When your luck is not with you, Life's horizon streaked with blue, Pluck and sand will pull you through — Grit your teeth and bear it! When your plan's been blown away, Grit your teeth and bear it! There will dawn another day. Grit your teeth and bear it! When your feet are slipping fast. And you're dwelling on the past, Brace yourself — these things can't last — Grit your teeth and bear it! When they say, "we told you so", Grit your teeth and bear it! Free advisers seldom know — Grit your teeth and bear it! You have got the stuff to win; Finish it if you begin; Fill your lungs and lift your chin! Grit your teeth and bear it!
