Bell of Purpose

Purpose, Drive , Focus,
Mission, Vision, Dreams...
These keep me tossing on my bed
Each night.
I thought night time
Is for rest, and day for work.
No, I am wrong 'coz I never get to sleep
For my dreams are dreams to be dreamt awake.
And, If I dare fall asleep,
I get into a mare; day or night.
Purpose wouldn't even let me,
He Drives me to Focus on the Mission
To achieve my Vision,
The one I keep dreaming about; awake, remember?
Purpose, Drive, Focus, Mission, Vision, Dreams...
You see,
I Drive myself hard to find my Purpose
And Stay wide woke to maintain my Focus
For no Mission can be achieved without a Vision
And no Dream without a D and a P and an F, M and V.
Now, that is no literal spelling of a dream but
That is how to spell your Dream
 to come through.
Purpose, Drive, Focus, Mission, Vision, Dreams...
I know now these words ring a bell in your head
Your heart and deep down there in your mind.
Good,
For you need to be Driven by 
A Purpose and to Focus on your Mission 
to achieve your Vision 
so your Dreams can come true.
I would ring the bell one last time 
and I pray it sticks too;
Purpose, Drive, Focus, Mission, Vision, Dreams...
