PRACTICE MADE PERFECT
Years to formulate
From average to great
Today it became appreciate
It was my grandfather bless his soul
He wanted success for his grandson
Foundation of the Typewriting keyboard you see
Typing was going to be bread and butter for me
Skills in that order
My Grandfather covered two theories of typing and preparing me for college
I practiced typing 4 hours every day
Getting my fingers acquainted to the keyboard
Alpha letters and extending sentences in typing lookout
The Thesaurus being my lesson to elevate intellectual boundaries
My Grandfather being business minded in mind, body and spirit
Determination virtue my high mark
Years of cultivation to master
Success came through typing
My Grandfather being my number one fan
“Succeed until fulfilled”
Look back only for a moment and striving forward
Reflecting back on my teachings having an impact
Grandpa’s hopes and aspirations for his Grandson
My world without end
My beginnings into the future
Before my Grand Father died, he said, “You are going to remember this old man”
You can’t forget where excellence got its start
Thanks Grandpa
You made a difference through me that follows me.
