Bernardo F. Asuncion Poet Quatrain

Patience and Perseverance

Let me bear trials and pain
Without complaint or holler; 
Let me endure the rough rain
And strong storm or vile weather.

Let me display forbearance
Under strain, hurt, and heartache; 
Let me beat the remonstrance, 
Even the wrong or mistake.

Let me be firm and steadfast, 
In spite of opposition; 
Let my toleration last, 
Despite the provocation.

Let me possess fortitude, 
To withstand difficulty; 
Let me have the attitude
Of braving my misery.

Let me have constant effort
To achieve my greatest goal; 
Erasing my grime and dirt, 
For redemption of my soul.
