Patience Allied with Perseverance

“With patience and perseverance
We can win the hardiest race.”- By author
**************************************************************

                                     Patience and Perseverance

                            On the journey of life when we embark
                              Let patience allied with perseverance
                         Be the lighthouse, our path to lit with spark
                           And permeate our spirit with endurance;

                       When wilful whirling winds waft down our soul
                            Let us not yield to dark clouds of despair
                         But forge ahead steadfast towards our goal
                            Without a single shaggy seam of scare;

                           Let`s not try the hilltop at once to clinch
                             As we may tumble down a dizzy slope
                        But, move forward step by step, inch by inch
                           With patience and perseverance to cope;

                      With patience we earn the Lord`s divine grace,
                          With perseverance we win the tough race.
