No Shortcuts

No shortcuts lead to places worth exploring, No instant wins, no sudden outpouring, But patience, perseverance, gentle pace, Create a journey adorned with fervent grace. Behold the majestic tree, so wide and tall, Once but a seed, so tender and so small, It faced the winds, the storms that did assail, Yet with time's embrace, it flourished without fail. So the iconic building in the ground did rise, As a sky rise structure, ascending up to the skies, Yet each brick, each step, a marvel to behold, From humble origins, a story to be told. Like a journey of a thousand miles, slowly, Begins with just a single step, courageously, Progress may seem so slow to show-up Yet, breakthroughs happen, if we don’t give-up. So take that first step, bold and unafraid, With faith as your compass, unswayed, For with the God of miracles by your side, Each step will be a miraculous safe stride.
