What Is Done Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Success to obtain it,
Takes much more...
Than sitting around wishing,
One day it comes delivered.
As surprised looks,
Are practiced...
Before that knock is heard.
When one slowly strolls,
To open an unlocked door.

'Oh.
I'm so shocked.
I can't imagine what's in,
That big gift wrapped box! '

Even blood, sweat and tears,
Wept and kept to apply...
Until that doing dries eyes,
Does not guarantee anyone...
Success comes to arrive.

But what is done,
Clear to witness it...
Is one awakening,
To overcome assumptions.
And realizes success, Identifying it personally.
With it to get.
Has been achieved not only,
With kept faith.
But also with less excuses,
Everyday made to create them.
