Goal Setting and Bed Wetting

Goal Setting and Bed Wetting

A goal someone set was in bed not to wet
And the closer it seems he was sure to get
About self felt more comfortable and at ease
Realizing only God is one who he should please.

There are things that determine a goal
You set for yourself either young or old
May be physical or made for the mind
Always expedient while well-designed.

When a goal you will establish and set
Surely are delighted when it is met
Causing you to stand out in a crowd
Walking among people feeling proud.

Soon to each fact you became resigned
Another new goal will eventually find
Fit for you and placed before your eyes
Accomplishing goa will start to realize.
