Go-Getter

I am a Go-Getter
And so are you!
You can make things better
Only if you want to.

Your goals and aspirations are enormous:
You want to be loved, rich, and be famous;
You do long for a home with a child or two;
The list goes on-and-on, let’s just name a few.

You are young and ambitious, but uncertain too;
Wondering how or if  you can make it through.
Your potentials and dreams no one but you can impede,
To make it materialize-you’re all you really need.

All Were Born

Every family craves for a baby’s cry:
That tender voice that rattles the sky;
One to add honour and bears the family’s name;
Engage the course to defend their country’s fame.

But does it work that way in every society?
Or, do others greet new born babies with much anxiety?
I wonder, why some babies give a cause for celebration,
While an innumerable more present poverty justification.
Why one baby should bestow on a family a crown,
And another wears on a generation a frown.

Some babies bring hope as high as mountain peak,
And countless others frustrations as valley’s deep.
Some will attain great heights in front of our very eyes,
And they will merit reputations of the greatest size.
But some will die with potentials they’ll   never realize;
Many will languish with dreams they’ll never materialize.
