Edward Mccall Poet Free verse

Pursue Your Dreams

Pursue your dreams even when
Circumstance tells you no!
 It's not life that gets in our way
Or prevents us from going forward.
It's circumstance; it will put you down
And keep you there If you let it.
Understand life is full of circumstance 
good and bad. 

When a circumstances
is good we pay it no mind. 
 When it's bad we blame life instead.
Stop blaming life and stop letting circumstance win. 

 Take note of the blind guitar player
The one arm surfer, the wheelchair Olympian
And pursue your dreams even when
Circumstance tells you no!
