Aim
My dear little one, listen to me,
There's something important, I want you to see,
It's about having a goal, a purpose, an aim,
It's about working hard, and never giving up in shame.
Aim high, my child, reach for the sky,
With every step forward, you'll learn and you'll try,
You'll stumble and fall, but don't lose heart,
Get up and keep going, that's the best part.
You can aim to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a star,
You can aim to go far, and wide, and to go where you are,
You can aim to be kind, and loving, and true,
You can aim to be the best version of you.
It's not always easy, to aim and to strive,
But remember, my child, to always believe in your drive,
To trust in your heart, and the path that you choose,
And to never give up, no matter what you lose.
So, aim high, my dear, with all your might,
Believe in your dreams, and hold them tight,
And when you reach your aim and the goal is in sight,
The pride and joy you'll feel, will be a true delight.
