Unknown Growth

It seemed like mistakes took away my sails

 

I felt worthless, overlooked, and destined to fail 

 

Life is what you make of it, a fortune cookie reads

 

Just another analogy overlooked, indeed.

 

To tangle with this beast, you must better your routines

 

More work than meets the eye is needed behind the scenes

 

Imagination is freedom, wherever you may be 

 

There is a fee to learn, not use; so take advantage, using knowledge is free

 

You will know you’re living, when life is but a dream 

 

The almighty dollar is never as close as it seems

 

Anomalies are rare, unless that’s all that you see

 

Life is graded through the lens of satisfactory 

 

Without care and persistence, that’s what you’ll turn out to be

 

Don’t be a step on the ladder of someone else’s dream

 

Keep positive growth within your mind frame

 

Then frame the positivity in a noticeable place to hang

 

So out of sight, out of mind won’t be your excuse 

 

Because this growth is a gift that you should never misuse

 

Your worth is innate and wealth, a distant cousin

 

Money comes and goes, yet your self-worth doesn’t 

 

Pay attention to good things, to keep life pleasant

 

Always give thanks for a free baker’s dozen
