It Takes More Than Just Wishes Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Anyone who has ever made attempts,
To experience flying higher...
When to others their doing makes no sense,
Did not let negative comments...
Prevent them to again try.
Knowing it takes more than just wishes,
To open a door and soar.

It takes motivation to move one's ambition.
And a devotion focused that stays fixed,
To an initiative desiring what one wants...
With a doing again and again.
Regardless how many attempts are witnessed.
If one chooses to soar...
The doing will be proven some day to be done.

It takes more than just wishes,
To get from A to Z.
It takes initiative and belief...
The accomplishment of the mission,
Has never been out of one's sight to see.
And feeling comfortable in flight when it comes.
