Step Up and Finish

Ambitious and dogged determined, a dreamer is he Never contented to be held in any form of captivity Never allowing one's self to be treated insignificantly Like an eagle is he, always longing to be free Never knowing how far one could go, a visionary is he The broad and open spaces are where he longs to be Sometimes going north, looking east, returning south But settling out West, where eagles build their nests Although strong and steady like an old oak tree Yet he roams outside the box, a trail blazer is he Maybe never gaining the success as he dreamed he would But kept on working, doing the very best that he could Hoping to finish the race like he knows he should Zeal and speed are great, as we all agree But if it's "a finisher" that you really want to be, The spirit of dedication, discipline, and endurance is the key Many there are who may be called to be great starters Some there are who drop the ball and are frozen in the middle Fewer still are those who boldly step up to become the great finishers cj04112014
