Onset Of The Turning Point Poem by C.D. Xiang

We yearned for perfection with labyrinthine schemes in our hand.
Our plans were so gargantuan and chimeras were so lofty.
Our motto 'Never say die' shoved us to continue the journey
while despaired thoughts clouded the road ahead.
Many colleagues relinquished
and many others arrived
to fill that same empty space.
In the high and dry situations, there was only me in the whirls of turmoils.
I still held my my head high
and stood tall to face the storm.
I candidly kept my commitments alive.
Finally sometimes later, that vacant space was occupied
for long run by an honest fellow.
Those faint hopes bloomed once again.
Abiding passion stick with us like an obsession.
We hankered for no personal benefits
yet we worked night and day just to accomplish this mission.
I must say that
that was the turning point of
our mission.
