Perfect Future

Stories shown in the movies
Have their own happy endings; 
Either fiction or true-to-life, 
The heroes win over the villains.

A hard working student
Is vying for some honors; 
Taking up tests and quizzes, 
He comes up with flying colors.

An athlete dreaming to win
Has been vindicated finally; 
Though mission seems impossible, 
The buzzer's sound signals victory.

Pleasing everybody is hard
For a leader or president; 
Pressured by the opposition, 
He makes a graceful exit.

One sweet love story
Has been shared by a writer; 
Though lovers walk the fires, 
They live happily ever after.

So if one wants a brighter tomorrow, 
Begin to think of a better picture; 
Then say and do what is holy, 
For the good man there's a perfect future.
