I Rise Poem by Edwina Aleme

Looking beyond
I see the future
Not knowing where my
Rising will fall on
Incase I never saw it….
Like sponge, I absorb every lesson
And drip on anyone as a lesson
It’s so uneasy for one to be steady,
Not knowing where to stop…

I rise to the future
I rise to chart my course of life
I rise to challenges
I rise to conquer
I rise to beauty, laughter and happiness
I rise to pomp and pageantry
I rise to sing songs of peace
I rise to excel
I rise to greatness as
I soar like an eagle….

I stoop to conquer and rise to stardom
I will never give up!
All I want is to rise up
Until I RISE!
