Poet: Douglas Malloch If you can't be a pine on top of the hill Be a scrub in the valley - but be The best little scrub at the side of the rill. Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a bush be a bit of grass Some highway to happier make. If you can't be a muskie then just be a bass, But the liveliest bass in the lake. We can't all be captains, we've got to have crew, There's something for all of us here. There's big work to do and there's lesser work too And the task we must do is near. If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail. If you can't be the sun be a star. It isn't by size that you win or you fail. Be the best of whatever you are.

Imagination and Enthusiasm Poet: W. C. Thurston Take imagination and enthusiasm, And hitch the two together, Then fix your gaze on the farthest star And forget about the weather. Take a pound of pluck and energy a And mix with an ounce of thrift, Then forward-march to the heights ahead, And don’t be begging a lift. Pick out the hill you want to climb And fix your gaze on the peak, Then blaze your way to the very top, The bottom is reserved for the weak. Imagination and enthusiasm; Mark you! this matchless team, Is yours to harness and drive to the goal, Of all your heart has dreamed. Imagination and enthusiasm; Oh man! if you are wise, You’ll give ’em the rein, Then fix your gaze On the brightest star in the skies Related: A New Day Poem | Imagination | Poems About Goals | Do Right Poet: Unknown I love to do right, And I love the truth; And I'll always love them, While in my youth. And when I grow old, And when I grow gray, I will love them still, Depart who may.

Keep this in mind through all life's storms and stress. Hold up your head. You were not born a slave but free as air, In all the beauty of the world you share, Now banish fear and brush away dull care. Hold up your head. The heroes of the world are true kin. You, too, have greatness buried deep within. Give it a chance; no fight too hard to win. Hold up your head. Remember this great world has need of you, Has need of all the work that you can do; And of your visions and your ideals too. Hold up your head. Hark to the drums of life! They throb and roll; Inspire with courage the responsive soul. March on, you're bound to reach your goal. Hold up your head.
