Thankful Persistence

I am thankful for getting back to the muse
It’s helped me get through the sicknesses and blues 
With more time at hand 
I’ve got a plan 
To finally put forth
All that I’m worth
  
That dream
A scheme 
For that book 
Just look
I know
That only took 
About 30 years 
Throughout laughter, fears and all the tears 
That I’ve talked about it
Now just submit
A line here, a line there 
Its time to prepare 
For if I get this done 
My family and I will finally have some fun
