Disappointment And Patience Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Those that have come to devote themselves,
To that which they have commited to do to achieve...
Have not done so because they thought it easy.
And there are more who believe this than few who chose to do it.

Anyone wishing to be successful,
At anything done they do...
Must know a little bit about sacrifice,
A lot about disappointment and patience...
And forgiving those who say the most negative things,
When observing others doing something they would not do...
Because money is not involved to compensate their imaginations.

And getting 'paid' is their only objective in life.
But to leave good deeds to do to get done for some,
Becomes a necessity for the ones wanting to do their best...
Because that is what they expect and nothing less from themselves.
