The Right Way

We may compel the Wishing Well
To grant us all we seek
But … believing in a Wishing Well
Leaves a consequential pique.

For …
Ambition is the engine;
Motivation is the fuel
Labor - physical and mental
Become the only tools

To build upon the dreams within
Which only we can see
‘Tis how our wondrous dreams
Will breach reality.
