Dreams.
I want to stand out
To be looked up to
Revered and praised
I want my live to live on
Be a member of history
Do something memorable
Achieve a mythical goal
Invent the saviour of man
Fly faster - go deeper
Reach the centre of the earth
Go into outer space
Land and colonise planets
Be the real Captain Kirk
Write the perfect song
Act; a tear jerking Macbeth
Dreams only dreams
This is what mediocrity means.
Excel
in your crafting,
in gratitude and courage
I see a bleeding point there,
it is hurting inside. Do not annihilate,
do not deny. It is us in great strength, foe and friend together.
Have a great birthday, Ken Russel,
Learn from the teacher's instruction;
Your knowledge will let you excel
Everyone else in your section.

God Did Tell That We Would Excel
God to us did tell
that we would always excel
while we do things well

An Incentive to Excel
Written: by Tom Wright
6/24/2018
Employee compensation should be based on merit,
But the slackers among us never want to hear it.
For each has a skill set that we bring to the table,
With an ability to do things that others aren’t able.
All would earn the same if slackers had their druthers,
These slackers at heart ride the coattails of others.
Some do mediocre work while seeking other’s praise,
Like minded grab signs seeking an undeserved raise;
Higher taxes and legalization is the solution of choice,
By caving legislators, whom we’ve entrusted with our voice;
As slackers look around, many troubling things they see,
But think it’s OK, if it doesn’t unfavorably affect me.
Most budgets aren’t infinite and are limited by scope,
An incentive to excel was what gave this employee hope.
My belief is,
Money doesn’t change habits or motivate one to do a good job!
If slackers got the same raise as others, they’d remain slackers, just higher paid.
Never settle for being less than the top guy.

J-ust strive to excel,
A-ccomplish your mission;
S-urpass in achievement,
O-utclass others in the
N-ation.
E-agerly strive to excel,
R-ising above the crowd;
M-ake the voice of your fervor
I-mpeccable and loud.
T-he fourth of September shows the result so well;
A-im to eclipse the old record, just strive to excel.
Use it wisely,your mind,the key,
Use it to analyse quickly,everything that you see,
Use it to solve problems,,easy as 1,2,3,
Not the pace of a snail,mind busy like a bee,,,
Your future,your present,your past,
Where are you coming form,where are you now,how long will it last,
Are you moving at the right pace,too slow or too fast,
Will your later days be comfortable or will you still be paying the cost,,,
Life journey teaches,with an open mind,you'll learn it,
The bridges that you crossed,learn from your past,don't you ever burn it,
You know what's good for you,so if things ain't right,time to turn it,
Excel in life,pray,work hard and you'll surely earn it,,,(c)
Hi guys,,,missed you all !!!

Roses
Roses
Fairly they excel with beauty
Seen from my window whence I awake
Ajar the scent whiffs in as the dawn breaks
Cool kiss upon my face
Lace expression of emotion with grace
Withered soul age has brought about
A child within lured out
A chair amongst the roses worn bare
Lingers in the garden there
Roses
Roses
Roses
Fairly they excel with beauty
A sip from my cup of tea
Under the big willow tree
Spring breeze blew its mirth of foreplay
Banners of verdant green slightly sway
Roses
Roses
Roses
Fairly they excel with beauty
Withered soul age has brought about
A child within lured out

He excels in English
He excels in Maths
I'm really surprised
He's not in GATS (Gifted And Talented Students)
He excels in Geography
He excels in History
How he does
It's such a mystery
He excels in Sport
He excels in tests
I guess I can say
He's the best
He talks in class
He cracks jokes
But he excels
So he must be blessed folk
Amazing...
Excellence in beauty
I wish I could express
the ecstacy you give me
Hold me up when I fall
you loved me, I could tell
I used to believe
in a life where you never left me
I used to think in hopes and wonders
Dreamed in fairies and princesses
everything perfect and tidy
Not a care in my heart
nothing brought me down
tore me apart
Excellence beyond comprehension
The things I wanted to say
the need to express
the thing thats I held in my heart
from day to day'
Never recieved the chance
to give my appreciation
my hopes and wonders
You were gone before I realized
Gone before I could speak
Broken upon a force greater than your own
Brought down to a mortal level
Silenced by a more powerful voice
This excellence I recall
even though it is never seen
helps to guide me when I fall
Tries to see beyond the inbetween
