Making Life Count Poem by Janice M Pickett

When all around you
is filled with negative energy
and temptations fill the air
Stay strong in your belief
For it is your journey
not theirs

Set your pace and state your goals
Dream your dreams and see them as now
For it is your time and your life
and your future
No-one but you can see this through

So stay true to yourself
Trust that what you dream will be yours
Do not stop if you stumble along the way
Just pick yourself up and start again

This is one life, one road to travel
and it will have pot-holes
But with determination and faith
with belief that you will succeed
you will make it

The secret to your success
is to never give up.
