Madame sun has always had a bit of a crush on the moon
They see each other from afar daily, and of course, sometimes on zoom
the moon is conflicted as to whether it will work out
Go for it! Yells the star named Dave, who loves to shout.
But what if we can never fully together truly be?
The moon is practical, and has the wisdom of at least twenty-three
Madame Sun is nurturing, she is worth the trouble says the star.
If you do not go for her, I will, and I have a car.
This irritated the moon because he always wanted to have a car.
He had never liked Dave, but now he disliked him by far.
If Dave liked Madame sun, he would go after her now for sure.
Madame sun paid off Dave, a loyal sidekick for sure.
If a gopher sees its shadow
Winter's here to stay
More accurate than any weatherman
Even gets it right for yesterday!
If you want something in life you have to go for it- life isn't going to stop so you can smell the roses
Just for a moment,wait
hesitate and dream
and receive
Step outside the box
imagination cries
to be freed,
Unshackled ,awaken
conception's can-do,
make believe;
Experiment and try
the novel ,unique
in you,lie,
Just for a moment,don't
hesitate ,let it
formulate

opportunity
in the window of the soul-
today dawns repentance
Don't hold back
Your only regret's
if you do...
Let 'er rip
and let the chips ~ fall
where they may
You can do what you want to do,
Be what you want to be.
You can go where you want to go,
Beyond where your eyes can see.
Far away places or right here at home,
Horizons are waiting for you.
One thing remember and never forget,
To thine own self be true.
Reach out for the dream you keep in your heart.
Don't let it remain just a dream.
Don't hold yourself back afraid you will fail.
You've strength that has yet to be seen.
Just take up the reigns and forge right ahead.
Be brave and reach for the sky.
The only true failure that I've ever seen,
Was the one who just didn't try.

Just go for it
Be prepared to take action
Always move your feet
And make it happen
Climb that ladder
Be the one who inspires
Have a strong will
Continue to reach higher
WHY NOT GO FOR IT?
If it’s worth the try and the opportunity presents itself
Why not go for it?
If it does you no harm to attempt once again in spite of previous failure
Why not go for it?
If it means the world to you and everything you stand for depends on it
Why not go for it?
If it will make you happy and satisfied to achieve it for a noble cause
Why not go for it?
If there is a longing and desire to see your dreams come true
Why not go for it?
If it will give rise to a new dimension of freedom in this day and age
Why not go for it?
If it would make the world a better place
Why not go for it?
Don’t be afraid to try, you never know you could be the next Einstein, the next Isaac Newton
or the inventor of something spectacular; something new. Or you could even establish values
that would change the course of history and bring liberation to many who are oppressed. You could impact your generation immensely and fulfill the hopes and dreams of many who have dwelt long in the hallows despair.
Go ahead and implement that innovative idea; put to use that wonderful talent. Unleash that hidden potential.
So, why not go for it?
2013©Immanuela I Ejim
L-et your life go for it,
Y-ou must at times take a risk;
N-ever often plays it safe, even if virus attacks the disk.
G-o for it no matter how it ends,
E-very chance knocks just once;
R-ise up every time you fall,
O-pen your soul to God's hands.
N-ovember thirtieth Thursday,
D-o remain spiritually fit;
I-mmeasurable joy will come,
O-nce you start to go for it.
Just go for it
Utilize your mind
Reach for the gold
Remember to be gentle and kind
It is all in you
You have the knowledge
Apply yourself accordingly
Have strength and courage
Go for it and achieve
Just believe that you can
Have that extra effort and energy
For the time is at hand
Take those necessary steps
And rise to the challenge
Enlighten your world
Find your balance
Go for it
Build yourself up
Reach for the glory
Hang in there and be tough
Success is yours
Rise above those potential pitfalls
Put your mind to it
You can have it all
